Join the Ravenswood Neighbors Association on the 2nd Thursday of every month for our Ravenswood Board Game Meetup! Bring your own games or play one of ours. We play a wide range of tabletop games, from strategy to party games, one-shots, beginner to advanced, lightweight to heavyweight games, in small to large groups. We are a friendly community, and there is always someone willing to do teach-and-plays. Some of the games in our collection include Carcassonne, Dixit, Space Base, Ticket to Ride, Catan, Splendor, Azul, Quacks, Everdell, Wyrmspan, Flip 7 and many more!
