This event has ended.

The Games We Played is an art exhibition at House of Art Gallery from November 2, 2013 to January 11, 2014. The Games We Played is a nostalgic revisitation through art, the street and board games played by kids and families, and focuses on a commonality for most people— childhood games. While some games occupied the entire sidewalk, other neighborhood games took up the whole street. There were also the classic games played indoors when households still had family game night.

During adolescence, the creativity was always at play by making its presence evident in our wide smiles and echoes of laughter, these games were the fabric of our community. As stated by Ursula K. Le Guin, “The creative adult is the child who has survived.” Art is literally an expression of creativity, making the exhibition a playground for creative adults.

This exhibition will showcase a diverse group of emerging to established artists, with a multitude of genres, featuring Guy Stanley Philoche, Jamel Shabazz, Dan Ericson, Charlotta Janssen, Leroy Campbell and others.

Art and the mind at play will always emote creativity at a level that transcends age, race and class.
