MOPA launched POP Thursdays (Photography Off the Prado) in the summer of 2007 to offer an evening event centered around fun and photography. Each event is hosted by MOPA and features music, drinks, interactive projects and cult films.
Guests can engross themselves in the film by grabbing a seat in our state-of-the-art theater. Others can take in the vibe and enjoy a drink from the cash bar as the film is projected on the atrium wall, while experiencing the exhibitions on display.
