Autumn Play: Last Chance to Build Forts on the Field

Need a new way to play on Open Field while the grass is still green?  Local artist Peter Haakon Thompson, creator of Tent Services, designed fort kits that let Open Field guests create their own shade structures.  Using PVC pipe, canvas and connectors a simple tent can be replicated with the provided instructions or the materials can be used to build a more free-form structure.  Check out this video to see how simple they are to construct and be inspired to create your own.
