From September to November 2016, a weekly group of young children and their adults met to play together and be creative. Facilitated by Mirae Rosner, the group explored expression through movement, sound, drama and sensory play with materials and props. The group wasn’t a class, more like a creative exploration lab. Each week was slightly different, yet followed a predictable routine. Over the weeks, a friendly group formed in which we connected by watching, listening, copying, and also acknowledging that we are all different in how we engage with the world. Over and over, we explored the basic idea that there is no right or wrong way to play with something or be creative. As much a social space as a creative one, everyone who came contributed to a sense of warmth and welcoming in the room. In October, our group participated in the Between A and B project, showing a group drawing as part of the final exhibit aboard the SiteFactory school bus gallery. Thank you to everyone who attended Creative Playground!
