Alameda Free Library to Host Board Game Program

On Sunday, November 22, 2015, the Alameda Free Library will host a board game program for International Games Day @ Your Library, a day to celebrate playing games with your community. The program will be from 2:00 to 5:00 PM at the Main Library, 1550 Oak St. Alameda.

The International Games Day @ Your Library is an initiative created by the American Library Association and the Australian Library and Information Association. It was created to encourage communities across the world to collaborate and play games together in the library. All seven continents, including Antarctica, participated in the game day last year.

The library will provide a selection of board games and participants may also bring their own games to play. Friendly competition is encouraged and all skill levels of players are invited to participate. All ages are welcome at this free program.

Please call the Main Library Reference Desk at 510-747-7713 for any questions.
