This mini session is specially devoted to players who are familiar with the rules of Dungeons and Dragons or who have otherwise attended multiple Art Camp 504 D&D games. If you know the difference between a Check and a Saving Throw, this is the session for you where we'll take on more difficult and higher-level adventures!

Dungeons and Dragons presents endless possibilities and allows you to roleplay as a hero in your own story. Players work together as a team to decide how to respond to problems and solve them. D&D is not only fun-- it's a group social activity that teaches teamwork, cooperation, storytelling, problem-solving, and even math. D&D has become one of our most popular classes, we are so excited to introduce a new generation to this timeless and unique game!
