Hey! Play! Games in Modern Culture !!!!! written in blue, green, red, and white vertically and horizontally.

Kick off Chicago Design Week by role playing at the opening for HEY! PLAY! Games in Modern Culture on October 20.

Throughout the night, we’ll be playing a special game—score points when your alter-ego (chosen from one of the provided archetypes) is recognized. Power up with free 21st Amendment beer until it runs out. Wine and sparkling water will be available for extra coins.

Members, come at 5:30 PM for an exclusive meet and greet with the designers of Spacebox, a full-body experience recently showcased at the Game Developers Conference 2017, and be the first to play the games before the crowds arrive. (Use the member code sent via eblast to receive discounted admission!)
