Welcome! Wand’rer, to Mixology: Game Night! Join special guest Luis Carazo and our neighbors at Labyrinth Games and Puzzles for a truly unique playthrough of our 5E adventure, “Folger Foe-lios: A Night at the Library.” Whether you’re new to tabletop role play games or a long-time pro, we invite you to join us in a fantastical realization of the Folger Shakespeare Library to meet characters both familiar and strange! You’ll encounter the witches of Macbeth around their cauldron, a mopey Hamlet, larger than life fairies, and, of course, the infamous Puck…

About “Folger Foe-lios”

Doors open at 6pm to enjoy your free Mixology cocktail, included with your ticket. Food and additional drinks will be available for purchase. Cosplay is highly encouraged!

About the Playthrough

Playthrough will begin at 6:30pm. Tables may have up to six people; come with a group or meet new friends at the event— each table will be a mix of beginner through advanced players! Please note this will be a shortened playthrough lasting 2 to 2 ½ hours. The full adventure is now available as a free download to play at home.

What if I’m not ready to commit to a full RPG playthrough?

No problem! Use your ticket to join us for a board game night, courtesy of Labyrinth, who will also be offering their 20-minute introductory encounter “A Taste of Dungeons and Dragons.”
