Take a day for yourself. Explore for free.

Join us for Educator Day at MOPOP: a free opportunity to wander, recharge, and discover at your own pace. Explore our exhibitions, including the acclaimed Beats + Rhymes: A Collective Narrative of Hip-Hop and special activations for Follow the Yellow Brick Road: An Oz Film Festival, a Wizard of Oz-themed celebration that's equal parts nostalgia and inspiration.

This day is designed for educators who want to experience the museum without an agenda. Want to learn more about how MOPOP EDU can bring pop culture into your classroom? Stop by our welcome table to chat. Otherwise, the museum is yours to explore.

This isn't just a museum visit. It's a chance to recharge your creative teaching toolkit and see pop culture through fresh eyes.
