City As Play, James Rojas
In September, 2014 Growing Up Boulder hosted James Rojas for a series of City as Play workshops and a lecture at the University of Colorado. James pioneered the City as Play method to engage communities in the planning process in a more accessible way. He developed a method of using common everyday objects to "scramble the brain" and unleash creativity. His methods have been used in many places including James' home city of Los Angeles, Mexico, the Mississippi Delta, and now Boulder. During his stay, he worked with classes from Whittier International Elementary School, Casey Middle School, and Boulder High School as well as with the city's transportation department.
