We all had a favorite toy we have fond memories of, and maybe even long for in our adulthood. This exhibit celebrates the colorful, quirky, and iconic playthings that shaped generations, with artists reinterpreting beloved childhood toys. Blending nostalgia with fresh perspective, this show explores memory, identity, and the lasting cultural impact of the toys we treasured. I hope you will have fun with this exhibit, remembering what it felt like to play. All mediums welcome for submission.
