Messy Open Play

About this event

Our signature 914 PLAYS experience for children and their caregivers. For 60 minutes, the studio transforms into a themed world designed for children to explore, create, and discover alongside their grown-up. Each week offers a fresh combination of sensory play, process art, imaginative invitations, and hands-on experiences, creating a new adventure no matter how often you attend. This mixed-age playgroup is child-led and process-focused , allowing children to move freely through the space and engage with activities at their own pace. Experiences are thoughtfully designed to support a wide range of developmental abilities while encouraging curiosity, confidence, creativity, and social connection. Children will explore a variety of sensory and art experiences including dry sensory play, water play, playdough, open-ended art invitations, collaborative projects, and themed pretend play . New and familiar materials are carefully curated each week to inspire exploration, experimentation, and joyful learning through play. From pouring and scooping to painting, building, squishing, and creating, every station is designed to spark imagination and encourage meaningful interactions with materials, caregivers, and peers. We handle all of the setup and cleanup . Just come ready to play, create, and make memories together.
