We’re so glad you’re planning a trip to MoMu! Established in 2022, the MOOP Museum appears in Nevada’s Black Rock Desert each August at Burning Man. The museum is open 24 hours daily, and you’re always welcome to peruse the exhibit.
Sometimes we also bring a mini version of our museum to regional events.
Our handcrafted, high-quality gift shop items are guaranteed to be made with MOOP or your money back. We hope you’ll find something you like to take as a souvenir of your visit.
MOOP, which stands for “matter out of place,” is Burning Man lingo for anything in a spot it’s not supposed to be. It includes what you’d think of as litter, plus lost and forgotten items that can be super cool and easily loved by someone else. The latter is what you’ll find on display at MoMu.
