Play! a Pop-Up Obstacle Course at Abolitionist Place
In partnership with Street Lab, we present, PLAY, a pop-up obstacle course. Join us for an afternoon filled with colorful barriers, hurdles with chalk drawings, a maze and racetrack. The program builds on Street Lab’s work at NYC play streets since 2013, and was designed from the ground up with industrial designer Hannah Berkin-Harper in response to COVID-19. The program launched in July 2020 in conjunction with the launch of the city’s first official Play Street Program.
On June 12, WNYC joined Street Lab at Reading Room for One Big Table. Since 2022, Street Lab has partnered with WNYC for a pop-up across the city and record a series called “Our City, Our Stories.” New Yorkers gather around their One Big Table and share stories on the radio. Listen to past episodes here, and follow the calendar to see where they’ll be next with WNYC.
