PLEASE NOTE: WE HAVE POSTPONED THIS SALON DUE TO THE LA FIRES. The new date is set for March 1

“To be playful and serious at the same time is possible and it is the ideal mental condition” espoused progressive education pioneer John Dewey. What if play could save us all – children, parents, and educators? (Seriously.)
This TEDxUCLA event is hosted by educators Dean Tagawa, Melinda Tsapatsaris, Neal Wrightson, and Nnenna Nwachuku whose lifetime of work centers on harnessing the power of play towards children and adults living out ideals of democracy, critical + creative thinking, cooperation, and engaged citizenship. Seriously: Play will expand and hone in on the serious work of play and how in fact, play is the work we must be doing.
