The Playground Project Melbourne

More Information

Get ready to jump, fall, and imagine this winter when the international blockbuster The Playground Project takes over the Incinerator Gallery.

Making its Australian debut, the Playground Project will delight and inspire all ages. Experience a unique immersive exploration of creativity, play, and discovery in an urban landscape with three fully playable installations in and around the Incinerator Gallery building. The in-depth exhibition looks back on the rich ideas surrounding playground design from the 1950s to the 1980s.

Design enthusiasts are also invited to our public program presented in partnership with Monash University’s Art, Design, and Architecture (MADA), delivered at the Maribyrnong Park Bowls Club, discussing the history, imagination and possibility of playground design:
