Indoor Recess - the art of play

Indoor Recess: The Art of Play is our classic, nostalgic, and grown community-centered adult recess experience. Reimagined indoors with an art-forward twist. This is play for adults who believe joy, creativity, and connection are worth practicing.

What to Expect (SEE BELOW FOR A FULL SCHEDULE, LINE UP AND BREAKDOWN)

🛝 Games & Movement
Two floors, two playrooms, two DJs, a gym, low-stakes games (think dodgeball, pickup games, board games, double dutch, card games, musical. chairs, group games, etc), friendly competition, and open play. Come move your body and follow your curiosity.

🎨 Art & Creative Stations
We're going big with art this go 'round with the help of some inspiring collaborators. Hands-on art, crafts, and making spaces designed for exploration. No experience needed.

🤝🏾 Community Play
Play alongside new and familiar faces. Connection happens naturally here.

🍗🍹🧶 Food, Drink and Creative Vendors

Fuel up with food and drink vendors serving bites, sweets, and sips to keep you energized. Explore creative vendors offering art, handmade goods, and playful pieces that reflect the spirit of the day. Come hungry. Come curious. Leave inspired.
