The Rock-n-Tot policy states that EVERY person (adult and child) must have at ticket … those children who are crawling (and not yet walking) do not need a ticket.

Please ensure that everyone in your party has purchased (or won) a ticket to minimize any confusion at the door on the day of the event!

PARKING: The address for MOCA is 8501 Carnegie Avenue, 44106.  Map / DirectionsParking will be provided – at no cost – to you by the folks at MOCA. As there is a Play House event the same day, it is VERY important that you notify the parking attendant that you are attending ROCK-N-TOT at MOCA to take advantage of the complimentary parking. We cannot refund the parking cost if you fail to notify the parking attendant.

STROLLERS: There will be limited stroller parking inside the venue … as there is an elevator to the museum, and no stairs once inside, please consider leaving your strollers at home or in the car.

FOOD BANK DRIVE: Please join us in collecting for area Food Banks this Thanksgiving season. We will have collection bins at the event and encourage you to bring a contribution (non-perishable) to share with others.

SECURITY: Please note we have security wristbands for the children. You will get a matching claim ticket for each wrist band. Hang on to these!!! Your claim tickets will need to match your child’s wrist band to exit the event.

GOODY BAGS & GIVEAWAYS: We have some amazing Things That Rock to pass along to you … EACH family will take home a fun goody bag, and each ticketed person will be entered into our prize giveaway!  Check the white board as you exit the event to see if you’ve won!

VENUE ACTIVITIES / LAYOUT: When you first arrive, you will need to check in at the VIP Table.  Please provide your ID and last name to the RnT staff, your children will be wristbanded and you will receive a Venue Map.

You will then proceed upstairs (either via elevator or stairs) and the fun will begin!  Some of the highlights:

Rock the Vote!

Have you voted yet today?

Have time for one more small vote?

My Idea

Wouldn’t it be great if Rock-n-Tot was available for EVERY family … and instead of having to purchase tickets, you instead simply brought a contribution to a local charitable organization?

We would appreciate your vote!
