Pop Culture

Pop culture is world-shaping and multi-faceted. It defines us, and we define it. It’s constantly evolving, in form and in medium, and the only way to be a part of it is to immerse ourselves in it.

That’s why there's MOPOP.

Special Exhibition
With the advent of electric amplification in the 1930s, the guitar became a dominant presence in our musical landscape and, like the automobile, a symbol of American ingenuity and design. At MOPOP, the Guitar Gallery is a monument to that ingenuity, featuring an exploration of the instrument’s storied history, legendary guitars, and the iconic artists who wielded them.
