What does Chinatown sound like? And what do those sounds look like? Join MOCA in making art inspired by the sounds of our neighborhood and our special exhibition, Five Senses of Chinatown. What color is the sound of a basketball game or the shuffling of mahjong tiles? Is a sizzling wok a straight line or a curvy line? Let’s find out together!

Paint, build, craft, and collage with us! Inspired by the museum’s exhibitions and local artists, MOCACREATE explores different themes every month. MOCACREATE workshops are designed with families in mind, but all are welcome!

FREE — scroll up to RVSP! RSVP optional, but appreciated.
