Join us on October 5th for a second weekend of Spill, Squish, Crunch: a sensory laboratory for 0-6 year olds.

Designed in our Play Lab series, elements in the Sensory Laboratory were developed by local artists with children ages 1-6 and their families as artistic partners in the process. Join us in a curious investigation of how our world looks, feels, sounds, tastes, and smells in this latest Theatre & Dance for the Very Young production.
