  • celebrate and share our experiences with play!

Play! Summit

In January 2020 we were proud to provide funding support for the first ever Play! Summit, helping to bring together educators, researchers, parents, students, and policy-makers to learn from each other. The Summit included keynote speaker Dr. Anna Kirova, signing of the charter, 3 play presentations and a stakeholder resource gallery.
