Play as a Precursor to Participation, with Reanne Estrada and Benjamin Stokes

Published: Nov. 5, 2020, 11 a.m.

Guests Reanne Estrada of Public Matters, a Los Angeles-based creative studio for civic engagement, and Benjamin Stokes, Director of The Playful City Lab, join us to discuss the potential for \u2013 and benefits of \u2013 play in our public spaces. We think about the affordances of play as a tactic for driving civic engagement, acknowledge the ways play is already baked into our communities and consider the ways it has the potential to drive equity, even as it is not always available equitably.
