2024 has been a time of incredible growth for MOPOP. We celebrated two exhibition openings, Massive: The Power of Pop Culture, and Keith Haring: A Radiant Legacy; added more programs and educational offerings; announced a bill launch seeking The National Designation status; and updated our mission statement and brand to align with our re-energized vision for the future.  

I am so grateful that you are part of our community and shared these milestones with us! Whether you visited us for an exhibition, joined us for a member program, or volunteered in our galleries, your support illustrates why the world-shaping, multi-faceted, and constantly evolving power of pop culture matters.

MOPOP is ready to celebrate our 25^th anniversary in June. I invite you to watch the short video linked above and join the excitement as we countdown to 2025!

With Gratitude,

Michele Y. Smith

Chief Executive Officer, MOPOP
