Summer Program: Parks and Playgrounds (Grades 3-5)

This program is SOLD OUT. Add yourself to the waitlist here.

Time: 9:00 am – 4:00 pm, daily

Kids are the experts in this program focusing on the design of parks and playgrounds. The class will visit several unique parks and playgrounds in the city to assess their design features by playing (of course!) and conducting on-site analysis through surveys, drawings, and user interviews. Students will explore and design different types of play spaces, culminating in a model of their own ideal park or playground.
