On every last Saturday of each month in 2025, we invite the public and individuals interested in stop-motion and the animation process to attend our Animation Jams. Each month a different professional animator will be on site at MOSMA HQ working on a short piece of animation and we want to invite you to meet the animators, other stop-motion industry professionals, ask questions and network.

Join us as we explore ideas, materials, discuss and focus on all things stop-motion animation.

THIS MONTH’S GUEST ANIMATOR: PAIGE HURD

After graduating from the Savannah College of Art and Design in 2019 they started on Netflix's Wendell and Wild as a facial animator. Paige has worked on multiple projects such as In The Know, Tiny Chef and Brim Broome Boulevard. They continue to be a part of the stop- motion community here in Portland and are currently working at House Special.
