  abstract  = {In March 2021, the IMAGINES Project - an international and interdisciplinary research network for the modern reception of antiquity in the visual and performing arts - held their seventh conference online. The event focused on PLAYFUL CLASSICS, and was hosted from G{\"o}ttingen University by the organizers Juliette Harrisson, Antje Kuhle and Martin Lindner. The keynote by Dunstan Lowe on „The Danger of Seriousness: Play and the Future of Classics" outlined the potential of researching classical reception as a creative process. The following sections brought this to life with in-depth treatments of the underlying mechanics of constructing and deconstructing, playful learning, the „Faces of Antiquity", forms of interaction and national/nationalistic traditions. The programme combined scholarly contributions with presentations and workshops by various artists and open discussion elements. The shift to an online format allowed the participation of an unusually international audience, while the interactive elements - including a thematic game as a continuous side event - especially encouraged a large number of students to participate actively. Therefore, this conference report will not just summarize the content of the event, but also provide a student perspective on attending a conference on classical reception - a research area which is mostly neglected in the teaching curriculum.},
