Play helps people of all ages learn, connect to one another, and make new discoveries. These traits make play a powerful—but often underutilized—tool for professionals in all types of museums. During this interactive session, we will share research, case studies, and hands-on activities that will inspire you to play more at your home institution. You will also be equipped to advocate for play by connecting it to your museum’s educational, financial, and equity goals.
