For the Love of Games: A Film to Watch + A Night to Play 🎲
Let the games begin!
Hey friends,
We’re excited to recommend a film that’s right up our alley:
🎬 The Hobby: Tales from the Tabletop, a new Canadian documentary that dives deep into the surprisingly massive and emotional world of modern board games.

Available now on digital and on demand, The Hobby is a warm, funny, and wildly relatable portrait of game-lovers around the globe. From game designers and tournament champions to casual players and creative misfits, the film explores how board games aren’t just about winning, they’re about connection, creativity, and community.
It’s the perfect pre-watch before our next event...

Come for the games.
Stay for the convos.

Networking doesn’t have to be awkward. It can actually be... fun. We promise.
Let’s roll.
And if The Hobby teaches us anything, it’s this:
“We don't stop playing because we grow old;
we grow old because we stop playing.”
George Bernard Shaw
