Change of Plans – Same Great Picnic, Indoors!

With rain and cooler temps expected this week—including Saturday—we’re moving the MONA Annual Member Picnic indoors. The good news? That means more comfort, great food, and plenty of fun for the whole family!

New Location: Upside on Moore
1700 N Moore St, Level M2, Arlington, VA 22209
Saturday, May 31, 2025 | 11:00 AM – 3:00 PM
$5 per family (only one registration needed per household)

What to Expect:
Join us at Upside on Moore, the vibrant, modern food hall right above the Rosslyn Metro station—easy to get to, and packed with great options.  Enjoy coffee or lunch anytime with easy mobile ordering from one of five restaurants, all while taking in the fun and entertainment.  Should you and your family need a break from the festivities, there is quieter seating toward the front of the venue.  We also have space for stroller parking and hanging up any wet rain jackets.

Everyone receives a popcorn bag, and kids will love our lineup of live performers, face painters, and glitter tattoo artists. Meanwhile, adults can enjoy Happy Hour specials all day from the bar.

Performer Schedule:
11:00 am: Bubbles with Molly
12:00 pm: Kidsinger Jim
1:00 pm: Rainbow Rock Band
2:00 pm: Zig Zag the Magician

Parking Info:
Parking is free on Saturdays at the Rosslyn City Center garage (across Moore St. from Compass Coffee). Make sure to validate your ticket at the front desk before leaving. From the garage, take the elevators to Level M2 and follow signs past the food hall to check-in.

Issues With Registering?

We appreciate your flexibility and can’t wait to see you indoors for a fun, cozy, and lively "picnic" day!
