PLAYING WITH PURPOSE
​Adding WEDNESDAYs at 10:30am from March 26th through April 30th
 AGES 0-5 with caregiver, inside the Great Ponds Gallery


Playing with Purpose is designed to help parents/caregivers gain a better understanding of the importance of play and learn how to be active participants in this important work. Play stations are set up to allow for one-on-one time as well as to work on fine and gross motor skills and socialization. During each session parents and/or caregivers are given relevant materials and articles on how to continue to support and build on these concepts at home. Parents/caregivers are then encouraged to use the items shared to “Play with Purpose” with their children.

​Mass Capoeira Demonstration

Capoeira is a rich cultural tradition that incorporates elements of martial arts, dance, music, and language.
The Mass Capoeira Culture Center is a cultural organization dedicated to promoting fitness, fun, and personal development through the art of capoeira. Mass Capoeira performances are boisterous, dynamic, and interactive.

Typical Mass Capoeira performances include live music and singing, explanations of basic movements, acrobatic solos, and a capoeira roda, where they demonstrate the complete experience of playing capoeira in a traditional circle. Performances may also include stories about capoeira history, maculelê (a warrior dance with sticks), and other Afro-Brazilian arts and music styles.
