Gateway Games: Introduction to Modern Board Games *In-Person*

In a digitized age where we spend so much time on our phones or computers, the table top industry is growing rapidly. In this class, we will learn about some of today’s most popular games broadly considered entry-level to the hobby. These include Settlers of Catan, Carcassonne, Pandemic, as well as several others. We will learn the basics, rules, and strategies and also have the opportunity to sit down at the table and play with fellow students. Watch out—you might get hooked! Instructor: Alex Lasky
