D&D at the Library

 Currently we are offering one D&D campaign for our teen patrons ages 12-18. On Mondays we are in in the Library, playing face-to-face from 5pm-7pm. If you would like to join the game please email our Teen Programming Assistant at mateen@delcolibraries.org and she will be more than happy to help you build a character!

Our group meets every Monday 5pm-7pm (in Library)
