Paper Monsters

Come play Paper Monsters with us!
Paper Monsters is a game where participants play by taking turns drawing sections of a body on a sheet of paper, folded to hide each individual contribution.
The first player adds a head-then, without knowing what the head looks like, the next artist adds a torso, and so on.
In this way, a strange, comical, often grotesque creature is born. Each participant will be given a sheet of paper to get started and pass it around their family or friend group until each section is complete.

Ages: All ages welcome, children under 5 yrs. must be accompanied by adult
Day: Friday
Date: 4/26
Time: 6:30-8:00 pm
D/ND Fee: $15/$20 per person
