Nerds and Games Night

Hosted by Aws

Calling all nerds to come and hang out!

Wanna play some Magic the Gathering? Pokemon TCG? Test out the brand new board game you just made? Paint some minis for an upcoming campaign? Come join us on November 19 for Nerds and Games Night for a space to exist as a nerd!

We’ll be open 4pm – 9pm, drop by and say hi! Magic Commander/EDH decks will be provided for intro games, but of course you’re welcome to bring your own.

New players are welcome. Aws will be your host of the evening if you have any questions!

People sit around the table with beer and drinks and magic cards.

The Theatre Centre Café/Bar

We’re part of The Theatre Centre, but we are also our own thing. A workspace, a coffee shop, a bar, a performance space, a gathering place. Coffee, cocktails, delicious treats, and free wifi—spend an hour or the whole day. This place is for you!
