Community Conversations
WLS procured the screening rights to the documentary Playing For Keeps: The Upside of Downtime at local libraries. Screenings include facilitated community conversations with topic experts. The film, directed by James Redford, explores the value of play from a health perspective. It features high-performing individuals who prioritize play as essential to a happier life and demonstrate how play is a potent antidote to those subjected to stress and danger on the job, while highlighting the power of a playful approach to our daily lives, regardless of our circumstances. It serves as a reminder that play is a natural and essential part of our lives, from birth to adulthood.
Public screenings are listed below. This list will be updated regularly.
