SUMMARY:UnConference: Play for Change
DESCRIPTION:In partnership with the Playful Pittsburgh Collaborative and Philadelphia Playful Learning Landscapes\, join us on Tuesday\, October 30\, at the Carnegie Museum of Art in the Oakland community of Pittsburgh for UnConference: Play for Change\, a day-long event to think critically about play. There will be keynote speakers\, lightning talks\, hands-on activities and action plan time. \nWe will convene 25 teams of 5-7 individuals from neighborhoods\, boroughs\, and cities from across southwest Pennsylvania and West Virginia to: \n\nExplore WHAT is play\, and WHY play?\nUnderstand the play continuum and the role of “playful learning\,” such as the Six C’s (critical thinking\, communication\, collaboration\, culture/community\, creativity\, and connectivity) and their importance in positioning our children for the future.\nConsider a “play community.” Why they are important? And\, how to define a vision\, mission\, purpose\, and goals in the creation of your own playful community. We’ll talk about lessons learned from the Playful Pittsburgh Collaborative and the Philadelphia Playful Learning Landscapes.\nLearn more about transforming public spaces into community play and playful learning spaces such as hands on installations of playful learning modules.\nDevelop action plans for infusing play in your community. What challenges at the school\, neighborhood or city-level do you think ‘play’ may help address in your own community? How do we design communities with intention to address these challenges? We’ll talk about the Hazelwood Play Trail case study.\n\nAll while considering issues of equity\, transportation\, safety\, play across the ages\, community input and more. \nRegistration is now closed.
