Community Conversation: Making Places for Play
Join the Conversation! Providence Children’s Museum is hosting two community conversations this fall to bring together individuals and organizations from across the state to discuss the issues affecting children’s opportunities for unstructured, self-directed play: Making Places for Play Thursday, November 5 • 7:00 - 8:30 PM Join a discussion about how to build community, engage families and inspire child-directed play through placemaking. Hear from local people who have strengthened their communities by creating playgrounds, parks and gardens. Building Community Wednesday, December 2 • 7:00 - 8:30 PM By fostering strong communities, together we can give children more freedom to play. Hear about ways people have built and sustained community in their neighborhoods – and beyond – and share your thoughts and ideas. The conversations are free and open to the public and will be held at Providence Children’s Museum 100 South Street • Providence, RI 02903 The conversations were inspired by topics on the Museum’s new discussion listserv, “PlayWatch: Connecting the Community to Promote Children’s Play,” and will be moderated by Museum director Janice O’Donnell. Contact Megan Fischer at fischer@childrenmuseum.org for more information and to RSVP. To read the PlayWatch listserv archives or to join the list, visit www.playwatch.org.
