About this space

Nestled behind our collection of over 1,000 board games, the semi-private Library is positioned in the beating heart of the venue. The space lends itself to informal meetings, dining, and of course, endless gaming.

With our thick curtains, the library can be segregated from other spaces or opened up for networking and games.
