December 12 - December 21, 2025
Events Saturday Dec 13, 3-7 pm & DEc 20, 3-7 pm
A playful, two weekend exhibition of objects, events, and concepts. When is a game art? Is art a game? What can we learn through play? Thirty artists present playful projects that circle around and through this question. Look for dancers with bubble wrap, role playing octopuses, mathematicians with cardboard hotels, projections speaking through walls, percussionists rolling die, a claw machine, subversive playing cards, and more.
This show will center on two Saturdays of talks, demos and performances:
Saturday Dec 13 Talks, 3-7 Demos & Play
