About this event
About Tabletop Gaming
Tabletop gaming is an umbrella term for any game played on a flat surface. These games typically involve physical components—such as boards, cards, dice, or miniatures—rather than electronic screens.
The hobby encompasses a wide variety of genres, including board games, card games, miniature wargames, and tabletop role-playing games (TTRPGs).
What to Bring
- Bring any tabletop game you love to play.
- Participants are encouraged to bring the games they love and share them with others. You’ll also have opportunities to introduce your games and recruit fellow players to join in.
- Warm clothing and/or space heater
- The evenings inside of the building can get a bit chilly. The building is not heated and the only warmth is from space heaters or your well planned clothing.
- Snacks
