Play Day will transform The Lawn on D into a large-scale playscape designed to inspire and delight the child in all of us. Institutions of play such as The Boston Children’s Museum, The Museum of Science, IK Studio, Virginia Melnyk, helloeverything, and Rebar Group, will inspire urban community play through games, crafts, interactive sculptures and works of art. It is an opportunity for those young and old to enjoy an afternoon of imaginative, spirited activity and to reconnect with what it means to be playful!
This Free Event is presented in collaboration with the Boston Children’s Museum and will take place on July 18th (Rain Date: July 19th) from 12:00pm through 5:00pm at 420 D Street in Boston, MA.

About The Lawn on D
A first-of-its-kind interactive outdoor space in Boston, The Lawn on D debuted in August 2014 as an experimental event space, hosted by the Massachusetts Convention Center Authority (MCCA). Located at the epicenter of Fort Point Channel, the Innovation District and the South Boston neighborhoods, The Lawn on D is a community-focused initiative that attracts diverse audiences from across the city in an innovative and creatively engaging urban space, as well as hosting national and international visitors to the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center. A winner of BostInno’s 2014 50 on Fire, the Lawn on D will be open for free activities, ticketed programs and private events from May 15, 2015 through October 12, 2015.
