Exhibitions- MOPA presents 7-9 exhibitions annually; including temporary, traveling exhibitions and exhibitions born of MOPA’s own ingenuity, patrons, and permanent collection.

Education- MOPA’s Exposure program introduces 175-215 Title I 4th-8th grade students to using photography as a way of communicating their ideas.

For seniors, the SEPIA program encourages them to engage with art and the community by promoting art appreciation to create images by learning digital skills.

Film- MOPA uses the power of film to promote discussion and cinema appreciation through diverse festival offerings such as the Human Rights Watch Film Festival. Additionally, partnerships with organizations such as San Diego Italian Film Festival and Taiwan Cinema Spotlight, etc. bolsters the Museum’s presence within the City and demonstrates its collaborative nature.
