Parlor Games!

Friday, November 9, 4:45 pm to 6:00 pm (Federal Hill Suite (Fairmont B))

NOTE: This is a “special event.”

What better place to enjoy Victorian Era entertainment than the historic Lord Baltimore Hotel? Join Play Studies for an irreverent jaunt through the history of Parlor Games. We’ll explore the background of this genre, consider familiar favorites as well as some more unusual games, and play a round or two. Take a break from the normal panel format to jump into history with a play-ful attitude!
