Playthings and Playtimes: An International Symposium on the Material Culture of Play
This one-day symposium brings together scholars from Australia, Canada, Europe, the United Kingdom and the USA who are involved in the latest research from the world of children’s play. The speakers will talk about their research on toys, games, architecture, and literature from various geographical and historical locations. From work on cold war toys in Argentina to the role of kindergarten architecture in Kuwait and on to the virtual realm of computer gaming, the day promises to be a scintillating look at the very latest work in play studies. The event is free for both online and in-person attendance. If you do sign up for in-person attendance but later decide you can’t come then please do let us know as this will release tickets for others.
