Between Saturday, October 19, and Saturday October 26, 2019, InterPlayers around the world will be gathering in local groups to celebrate the way that InterPlay is offering hope and possibilities in a world that truly needs it!
We will lift up the amazing ways that InterPlay is embodying life, creativity, community, awareness and hope all over the place—across the US and in other parts of the world. We will honor wonderful leaders both in and around InterPlay communities with “Spirit of InterPlay” awards, hear inspiring stories, invite everyone to contribute and, of course, eat, drink and play. Each location will be celebrating in their own unique way, with food, play, connection, fun and a sneak peak at the new InterPlay video.
