Events this week at Pandemonium Books and Games

[koshmom.livejournal.com]

There's 3 upcoming events at Pandemonium Books and Games in Central Square (Cambridge, MA) within the next week that are likely of interest to the Davis Square community.

1. ELS Game Day   Saturday Dec 12 from noon - 6 pm  Free!
This is a new event celebrating women in gaming.  We'll be concentrating on welcoming women of all ages to the store to encourage them to feel free to enjoy gaming in a safe environment.  Most games are geared towards, and played by, males.  We'll have female GMs and other female gamers ready and willing to show everyone from grandmothers to young girls how much fun it is to play games of all types.

We play games of Exploration, inspired by Amelia Earhart, the aviation pioneer.  We play games of Strategy inspired by Ada Lovelace, mathematician and the first computer programmer.  We play games of Storytelling inspired by Mary Shelley, author of Frankenstein and the mother of science fiction.  Earhart, Lovelace, Shelley = ELS!

2. Annual Holiday Geekfair!  Sunday Dec 13 from noon - 6 pm  Free!
Our annual Geekfair, featuring several vendors selling their geeky wares to people from Pandemonium's lower floor.  We'll also be having a used Game Sale where customers can sell their unwanted complete games (RPGs or board games) to the public for store credit.  Email general@pandemoniumbooks.com if you have games you'd like included in the sale.

3. Midnight screening of Star Wars: The Force Awakens   Friday Dec 18 Midnight - whenever the show is over
Pandemonium still has over a dozen tickets left at $10 each for this event.   We've rented out the Apple Theater (near Alewife) so that we can all see the very first showing of the next incarnation of the iconic movie series.  Tickets can only be purchased in our store. This event will actually begin Thursday evening in the store, likely with a small party (cake!) and then sometime after the store closes Thursday night we'll all continue the fun at the theater. (Edit: life intervened and thus we can't have the Thurs eve party.  See you at the theater!)
