Junk Play in NYC

So impressed by our friends at play:ground - the incredible team of playworkers, alternative educators, performers, historians and parents who've established a true junk playground in New York City.

We wish the team a fruitful summer rich in play and can't wait to hear your reflections at the season's end. Bring on the kids! 

Join us!

Join us in supporting a new adventure playground in New York City! Play:ground's adventure playground at Governor's Island will serve thousands of local children and be a model for countless American cities.  Wondering how to get an APG in your community? This helps!  Normalizing free play and supporting a standard of professionalism for playworkers is a piece of our shared pie: 

Our film THE LAND was launched through a successful kickstarter campaign and we know first hand how small pledges of support from $1, $5, $10, $100 -- whatever you can give -- MAKE the difference.

We believe in and support play:ground and hope you will too!  Pledge today and play on!
