Please join me October 26 for Where Do the Children Play? an online presentation of the Canadian Society of Decorative Arts’ Ornamentum Lecture Series.

Where Do the Children Play? is a curated tour of six distinctive Canadian play spaces with a smattering of contrasting international examples and a look back at yesteryear. Photos and video will illustrate different approaches and design elements that get kids coming back for more. Whether it’s public art, minimalist landscapes, child-led temporary creations or vernacular builds, each space offers seemingly endless moments of joy through the simple medium of play.

Participants will have the opportunity to consider the relation of play spaces within the broader urban design and planning context as we ask ourselves: Do our public spaces give children their due?

There is no cost associated with this event. Details available here.
