We created the outdoor game Hard Choices<\/em> as a playful way to gather input on the future of the neighborhood for Pennsylvania Avenue East, as part of a collaboration<\/a> with the DC Office of Planning and the Main Street association for Penn Ave East. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In the game, a charismatic “host” invites players to join at a sidewalk or public event. (For our main event, we launched with DC’s Art All Night event at a hub in the neighborhood; future events may include church picnics, community markets, etc.) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One player is selected to roll our ten-sided die. Their roll determines the “neighborhood futures” question that everyone will answer, displayed on a large screen or paper poster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
