Las Cruces residents who fancy a bit of tabletop competition are in luck as the Thomas Branigan Memorial Library is rolling out a monthly board game day. Announced to kick off on February 16, from 1-4:30 p.m., this social event is planned for the third Sunday of each month, enticing participants to dive into a variety of games in the Roadrunner Room, according to the City of Las Cruces.
The library, which stands at 200 E. Picacho Avenue and is accessible by RoadRUNNER Transit route 1, will provide a choice selection of games, but attendees can bring their favorites to share with others, the library's offering is merely a starting point for an afternoon meant to forge connection through the joy of play, a sentiment probably many can get behind, considering how communal experiences have become more treasured in these times, and here we witness an embodiment of this yearning through the strategic dances of board game pieces. This event is also designed to be inclusive and asks that anyone with a need for special accommodations to participate should contact the library at least 48 hours in advance at (575) 528-4102/TTY 711.
Deanna Duffy, Librarian at Thomas Branigan Memorial Library, is the point of contact for further information about this initiative, she can be reached at (575) 528-4005 or through her email at [email protected], providing a personalized touch to those seeking clarity or perhaps keenness on forming the future contours of this monthly gathering. The library has also noted that documents can be provided in alternative formats for those who call the aforementioned number.
