Extraordinary Playscapes


Presented by Design Museum Boston and Boston Society of Architects at BSA Space


This national exhibition and education program explores how designers translate play objectives into innovative, extraordinary, and meaningful play environments for communities around the world.


Play is vital to our physical, mental, social, and creative health — and designers, architects, and play advocates are taking notice. This exhibit examines the art, history, science, and importance of play, while telling the story behind some of the most incredible play spaces in the world. Featuring over 40 international playgrounds, drawings, sketches, videos, scale models, and playable installations, the interactive exhibition examines the importance of play and the latest thinking in playground design. Extraordinary Playscapes will incorporate educational programming, talks, and children’s workshops throughout the summer.


RSVP to the June 8th opening night event.


This exhibition is curated by Design Museum Foundation
