Join libraries worldwide in a celebration of tabletop games, using the library's own board and card games collection.
Join us at the Downtown branch, and libraries worldwide, in enjoying some analog gaming. Board and card games of all kinds will be available from the library's new collection of in-house games. Featuring innovative games such as KingDomino, Forbidden Island, Sushi Go and Century: Spice Road as well as classics like Chess and Checkers.
Feel free to bring along your own favourite too, as long as you’re willing to teach others how to play! Families and people of all ages welcome!
