Feminist Bird Club: Wingspan Board Game Event

The Feminist Bird Club is partnering with DCPL to hold a fun Wingspan Board Game Event!

The chill of February is here! This season is keeping birds quiet and tempting us indoors, but there's still a way to share a passion for birding and nature. We’re partnering with the Feminist Bird Club DMV and invite you to join us for their next meet-up playing Wingspan, the fun board game about birds created by local game designer Elizabeth Hargrave. Join us to play birders seeking to attract the best birds to our network of wildlife preserves. Each habitat in the game is associated with an action (gaining food, laying eggs, drawing cards). Each bird that you play makes you better at those actions, triggering its own power each time you use its habitat.

We’re meeting on Sunday, February 9 from 1pm to 4pm at the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial Library, Room 401-G. You can find it in the Conference Center of the 4th floor. 

Wingspan beginners are welcome! No prior experience required, but we do recommend watching a YouTube clip before attending to get a sense of the game. If you own a copy of the game and want to bring it, that would be great! More games mean we can have more players, so please let us know here: adultservices.dcpl@dc.gov.

We ask that everyone participating wear a mask so that those who are immunocompromised in our community can attend. If you need a mask, we will have extras. Please let us know if you have any questions or accessibility needs by emailing the Feminist Bird club DMV leadership team (fbc.dmv@gmail.com). We want everyone, especially members of the LGBTQIA+ community, disabled people, BIPOC, and women, to feel welcome.

We’re looking forward to seeing you soon!
