I had the privilege recently to participate in some playscape planning with the Ehattesaht nation of Vancouver Island, British Columbia. They are planning a playground space for preschool age children attached to their existing youth center, hoping to make it a place of meaning for their entire community. We had a great discussion about things like utilizing natural elements and the importance of entrances while we thought together about how to represent their unique heritage in a playful space that everyone will enjoy. It was a pleasure to work with them, and I'll be updating the blog with their progress. For now, here is some preliminary information on their plans!
