Downtown Branch

Gathering Place

Have you ever tried to complete a jigsaw puzzle in just 2 hours? Well here's your chance! Join us for a fun-filled time where teams vie to finish a 1,000 piece puzzle in time allotted.

This fun-filled night will put your skills to the test in a no-pressure environment. Unlike traditional puzzle competitions, each team will have a different 1,000 piece puzzle to complete. It will be the luck of the draw which puzzle you get!

This is a friendly event where all are welcome. It is not an official puzzle competition and unlike official competitions, the puzzle will not be given away at the end of the night. 

We have room for 10 teams so register your team early. Teams of 2-4 people are welcome. There will be no consideration to your team size in the final outcome, so big or small, we are all in this together. 

And don't worry, if no one is able to complete their puzzle by the 2 hour mark, each team's remaining pieces will be counted to determine who is the closest to finishing.
