Program Description
Event Details
Do you love board games? Have you ever wanted to create your own? In this hands-on workshop, you'll become a game designer as you explore the key elements that make board games fun and exciting—rules, strategy, themes, and challenges. We'll start by discussing our favorite games and what makes them great. Then, you'll brainstorm ideas, design your game board, create rules, and develop unique game pieces. Whether it’s a race to the finish, a game of strategy, or a brand-new adventure, your imagination is the only limit! By the end of the workshop, you'll have a one-of-a-kind board game to take home and play with family and friends. Get ready to roll the dice on creativity and bring your game to life!
Must be at least 8 years old to participate.
Summer Reading Program
Summer Reading Activities are "extras" - programs, presentations, and special events hosted by the library - designed to complement the reading goals of our annual summer reading challenges. Participating in these special programs earns additional badges in Beanstack and additional tickets for the ticket drawing prizes!
For Secret Code Word activities, be sure to look for the sign with the secret code word or ask a library staff member during the program!
Meet Gordon!
Gordon is our Summer Reading Activity mascot! Any time you see Gordon on something advertising a Level Up at Your Library event or program, it means that event will give you additional badges and tickets!
