NGHỀ NGHỆ PLAY LAB 2026: ART THROUGH PLAY
Nghề Nghệ Play Lab 2026: Art through Play is an interdisciplinary playground for all ages, where art, culture, and creativity are explored through play-based experiences.
Held over the weekend of 25–26 July at COMPLEX 01, Nghề Nghệ Play Lab 2026: Art through Play brought together a diverse range of activities and communities, including art toys & figures, LEGO, Mini 4WD, origami, traditional Vietnamese and Japanese toys, hands-on craft workshops, animation, creative marketplaces, and many other interactive experiences.
From familiar toys to long-standing cultural practices, each activity at Nghề Nghệ Play Lab 2026: Art through Play invited participants to step into the worlds of different creative communities, revealing how every toy carries a story of culture, art, and imagination.
The concept of Art through Play views play not merely as a form of entertainment, but as a way for people to learn, experiment, create, and connect with the world around them. From toys and games to craft practices and creative communities, every experience reflects aspects of human culture, history, and imagination. By assembling, making, observing, experiencing, and interacting firsthand, participants were able to engage with art and culture in a way that was accessible, intuitive, and deeply interactive.
Guided by this vision, Nghề Nghệ Play Lab 2026: Art through Play brought together communities, artisans, individuals, and organizations working across toys, design, crafts, art, and creative education, creating a shared space where different cultures could meet, connect, and inspire one another through play.
