How to run a tabletop game design workshop at your library (video)
5 tips for running your first (or next) design workshop at a public library: scope, topics, format, activities, and promotion.
I recently presented a webinar on “How to run a tabletop game design workshop at your library” hosted by the Indiana State Library. The recording is now available on YouTube!
Here’s what you will learn
The talk and questions are about an hour and cover how to:
Define the scope of their workshop.
Choose topics.
Pick a workshop format.
Have some ideas for hands-on activities.
Know how and when to promote the class.
It’s a lot, as noted when discussing how library game workshops benefit everyone.
How to watch
The recording is part of the What’s Up Wednesday series hosted by the Indiana State Library: How to run a tabletop game design workshop at your library.
They have many more videos on games and gaming in libraries that are worth watching too. So check those out when you are done!
