Dungeons & Dragons is a tabletop roleplaying game where you can fully immerse yourself as a character of your own making and explore an endless expanse of creative possibilities! Us creative-folk are exceptionally adept at D&D and they don’t even know it yet!

I believe that D&D exists at the apex of creativity, collaboration, storytelling, and being social. It’s a collaborative game where you can tell amazing stories, have unforgettable moments, and solve problems in ways you never thought possible. Everyone has a role, everyone has a job to do, and all are working together toward a common goal. The deeper I went into D&D, the more similarities I found between playing this game and the creative world, not to mention many avenues to express myself creatively in. Years later, with epic D&D-deeds under my belt, I realized that I wanted to share this feeling (the “high,” really) with as many people as possible.

And so I’d love to teach you what it’s all about and how to play so that you can experience it for yourself! I will be focusing on 5th Edition Dungeons & Dragons (the latest edition). All levels of experience are welcome whether you’ve never rolled a dice before or if you were a Warlock in a past life in need of a refresher.

There will be a fun, illustrated handout to finish up the FieldTrip.
