A variety of events and programs geared for teens grades 6-12.

Dungeons & Dragons

HEPL is starting a monthly Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) program for teens! D&D is a fantasy role-playing game where teens will create characters to explore imaginary worlds. Teens can get started with the Intro to D&D session during the Week of Wizardry and Wonderment in February to learn the basics of the game. Then we’ll meet up virtually with other teens each month to embark on new adventures. Experienced players and newbies welcome! Participants will need to set up a free account at Roll20.net for the monthly games. Game links will be sent out to registrants prior to the events. Registration required.
