Get to know the Playable Art Pieces:

It's You & Me, Kid - Artist, Frank Swanson, Littleton, CO > Laser cut granite boulder creating a three piece positive and negative space explorative sculpture

Spider Walk - Artist, Phil Proctor, Atlanta, GA > Interactive climbable sculpture in the form of a playful, stylized spider for children to climb, occupy and be enveloped within.

Wonder Wall - Artist, Reham Aarti, Boise, ID > Mosaic of kiln-dried glass on a concrete and steel frame invites children to explore texture, stimulate curiosity and inspire interaction.

The Big Imagine - Artist, Jeff Hackney, Hillsborough, NC > Reinvented functional swings with no upper cross-members to obscure the view of the sky. 

Dragonfly, Artists, Alexis Gregg and Tanner Coleman, Tupelo, MS > Industrial brick, concrete, steel, mortar, polished concrete slides, climbing ropes and "dalle de verre" windows. 

Twist and Shout, Artist, Beth Nybeck > A nonlinear jungle of stainless steel tubing that loops, whoops, curves and twists. It creates spaces to hang from, climb on, crawl under and walk through.
