Who Says Play Is Just for Kids? Time to Play Invites Adults to Reconnect While Supporting Local Nonprofits

Fifth annual adults-only evening returns to Carousel Gardens March 31, 2027; nonprofit organizations and community partners are invited to participate.

At the heart of the evening is a simple message: play matters for adults too.”

— Ty Salvant, author, advocate and advisor

NEW ORLEANS, LA, UNITED STATES, November 10, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — We make time for meetings, deadlines, and taking care of everyone else. But when was the last time we made time to play?

Time with Ty is inviting adults to put fun back on the calendar at the fifth annual Time to Play, happening Wednesday, March 31, 2027, from 6–9 p.m. at Carousel Gardens in New Orleans City Park. The adults-only evening brings together amusement park rides, local nonprofit organizations, and opportunities to connect with people who care about our community.

Nonprofit registration and community partnership opportunities are now open.

“Somewhere along the way, many of us started treating fun like dessert, as something we could have after everything else was finished,” said Ty Salvant, founder of Time with Ty and creator of Time to Play. “But the list is never-ending. We need opportunities to laugh, enjoy each other, and remember that we’re people with interests and friendships, too.”

For Salvant, making room for play is part of making room for a full life. Between work, family responsibilities, and community commitments, adults can fill their calendars without leaving much space to enjoy themselves.

Time to Play creates that space while helping guests discover meaningful ways to get involved locally. Attendees can meet nonprofit representatives, learn about their work, and explore opportunities to volunteer, serve on boards, or support causes that matter to them.

“We often want to help, but we don’t always know where to start,” Salvant said. “A conversation can open that door. You may come for the rides and leave having found an organization you want to support financially, services you didn’t know were available, or ways to get more involved.”

Participating nonprofits can introduce their missions directly to community members in a welcoming, relaxed setting. Business and community partners can help make those connections possible while supporting an evening centered on joy, belonging, and local impact.

Now entering its fifth year, Time to Play continues to bring adults and nonprofit organizations together around a simple invitation: “Make time for fun. Find your connection. Leave inspired”.

Admission includes unlimited rides during the event. Food and beverages will be available for purchase.

Nonprofit organizations interested in participating, businesses seeking partnership opportunities, and adults ready to plan a night out are invited to contact Time with Ty for registration, ticket, and partnership information.
