Join us on Sun 11/13 from 10am-3pm for Deaf Day at the museum. Students from @mdsmn and @UofStThomasMN will lead activities: Learn ASL signs, create a bookmark using sign language, experiment with Squishy Circuits and more. ASL interpreters will be available.

We will share more about our dear friend and colleague later this week, but we at the Playful Learning Lab are holding Eleni and her loved ones in our thoughts.

I am mourning the passing of my friend, collaborator, and PLL/UST colleague, Dr. Eleni Roulis. I will always remember her smiling, and will always be grateful we got to do one big/audacious/fun project together just months before she became sick. I'll miss you, Eleni.
