What is The OPEN PLAY?The OPEN PLAY is a one-of-a-kind, monthly event inspired by the spirit of an open mic—where creativity, curiosity, and connection take center stage. It’s a space for trying something new, sharing with others, or simply joining in to support and experience the joy of play.
The OPEN PLAY is a shared, co-created experience where PLAYERS and PARTICIPANTS bring the event to life. Whether you're stepping forward to share an idea, lead an activity, or simply showing up to immerse yourself in the energy of the group, your presence matters.
Why Play?
Play is more than fun—it’s a powerful state that opens us up to growth, learning, and new discoveries. When we play, we’re primed to explore, to push past our usual limits, and to step into the unknown with curiosity and openness. In this state, the pressure to “get it right” falls away, replaced by a willingness to experiment, adapt, and expand. Play encourages resilience, makes room for mistakes, and teaches us to embrace the process of learning itself.
Through play, we gain fresh insights about ourselves and the world around us. We move closer to our potential, finding joy in each step forward. And as we play together, we transform from individuals into a supportive, dynamic whole—a community built on shared discovery, growth, and the courage to keep exploring.
How It Works:
Our sessions blend structured activities with open space for creativity, making each event unique and deeply supportive. Here’s what to expect:

PLAYER-Driven Event
The State of PLAY only works because of the PLAYER-led approach. This event exists because PLAYERS step forward to lead, create, and share. It’s a space for collective expression, where everyone can contribute in their own unique way.
By leading a group activity, sharing a performance, or inviting collaboration, you’ll play a key role in shaping the event and community. You don’t need to be a “performer”—you just need to bring your authentic self and be willing to lead in whatever way feels right for you.
