Ping Pong Party at The Underline

6:00 pm | 8:00 pm

Join us on Tuesday, June 8, from 6-8 PM for 🏓 Ping Pong Party at The Underline. We will unveil the Water/Tables by artist Cara Despain in partnership with Miami-Dade County Art in Public Places and support from Swire Properties.

Thank you to Swire Properties for event support and Stella Artois for the free beer 🍻!

✳️ What are Water/Tables? They are regulation size ping pong tables designed by the artist with a central drain that is both a ball return and water hazard and makeshift storm drain so that when it rains hard, this flood mitigation system turns the tables into fountains.

🎨 Cara says: “I make a lot of heavy work about dark topics, but I also seriously believe in bringing joy to others. After one of the hardest years of our lives, one where engaging each other in public spaces real and imagined has been difficult. Please play in public and exchange joy with whoever you challenge!”
