DEEP PLAY OPENINGS / CALLS
CALL FOR VIRTUAL DEEP PLAY FACILITATORS (WINTER 2026)
The Deep Play Institute will be hosting a 6-week virtual series of workshops held over zoom during January-February 2026. DPI is seeking facilitators to lead a 2-hour workshop for the series.
Here’s a writeup of the same workshop series offered in last winter (2025): Playing when the Playing gets Hard. At The Deep Play Institute we believe that play can be deep, profound, serious, heavy, challenging and intense. But sometimes, the weightiest of weights don’t want to be played with. It might feel like the last thing in the world you are able to is reflect, let alone bring levity, creativity, or play. What do we do then? Join the DPI Team as we take you on a 6 week journey through a variety of playful practices that offer ways to find play in the most unplayful of moods.
Please reference our 2024 series and 2025 series to get a sense of the kind of material we are looking for.
Facilitators will be paid between $100-200 USD for their workshop (depending on # of registered participants for the entire workshop series)
