Radical Play Lab
Overview
Radical Play is about playing to transform systems of bias and exclusion. The Radical Play Lab is a community-engaged research and game design lab at USC that focuses on centering the creativity and diverse perspectives of people from historically marginalized groups. The lab connects USC students, industry professionals, community leaders, and high school students who are committed to radically changing the games and play landscape.
The lab theme for 2024-2025 is Democracy.
The lab theme for 2023-2024 was Climate Justice and Utopia.

Our programs have long been funded by invested professors and students, but in order to reach greater influence — especially in underrepresented communities in the Los Angeles area — we need more funding to run events, seminars, and summer courses. Your donations will ensure that under-privileged students will receive prolonged support for extending their game development and coding careers.
