Extraordinary Playscapes Exhibition
Extraordinary Playscapes is an exciting touring exhibition offered by the Design Museum Foundation. By examining the art, history, science, and importance of play—as well as 40 notable examples of playground design from around the world—Extraordinary Playscapes studies how designers translate play objectives into spaces where kids can grow, create, and explore. The goal of the touring program is to bring this impactful, inspiring content to as many people as possible.

At Design Museum Foundation we believe design can change the world. Done well, it can elevate our quality of life, make businesses more competitive, and protect our environment. Design awareness, education, and expertise are more important now than ever before as design continues to impact communities, organizations, and markets around the world. We are redefining what it means to be a museum in the 21st century — we're online, nomadic, and accessible to all through a network of exhibitions, events, and content. Our mission: Bring the transformative power of design everywhere, to inspire a world full of creative problem solvers.
