Let's make Dice Towers!

All supplies will be provided to create this Dungeons and Dragons accessory! Premade upcycled cardboard dice towers will be available for painting. Pre-cut dice tower pieces will also be available if you wish to design and hot glue your own unique dice tower.

This program is intended for fantasy gaming fans 11 years and up. Registration is required so I know how many dice towers to prepare.

Please reach out to Skie Thorp at kthorp@alexlibraryva.org with any questions or concerns.
