If you haven't made space for a little play in your life, maybe take a little inspiration from this week's author, educator, and improvisor Viola Spolin. Spolin revolutionized play as a tool for community building and connection, using games to help struggling members of her community in Chicago and beyond. Her work combined improvisation with principles of social work, literacy, and more. Her impact can be felt today in classrooms, theater companies, community centers, Hollywood Blockbuster movies and beyond! Join us this week and bring a sense of magic back to your life.
