Tabletop Games Club
Saturday, December 20th from 10:30am to 1:30pm
The Granby Library Tabletop Games Club invites players of all ages 8 and up to gather and enjoy a variety of board, card, dice, tile, and other in-person tabletop games in a welcoming, social environment. This club fosters a sense of community by offering a fun and interactive space for people to connect, develop new friendships, and strengthen inter-community relationships through friendly competition and teamwork. Whether you’re a seasoned strategist or a casual gamer, the club provides an opportunity to explore new games, engage with fellow enthusiasts, and contribute to the library’s role as a “third place”—a comfortable and inclusive space beyond home and work where connections flourish.
