Seattle Indies and Abbey Arts presents: Puddle Jump Games and Play Festival at Ballard Homestead

To demo a game at the festival please register here

Please also register on Eventbrite

How can games/play shape us and our worlds? Why are games effective forces of creative expression? How does playing change the way we experience? The wonder, excitement, frustration, and triumph of play and games are powerful forces.

The Puddle Jump Games and Play Festival is a showcase of innovative new games of all types and a chance for players of all backgrounds to come together and play.

For one day only, we'll be turning the Ballard Homestead into a playground with board games, social games, physical games, digital games, and talks about the role of games and play in our community.
Come out and make our city a more playful place!
