This summer, MOPOP's Gaming Series invites you to shuffle the deck, crack the rulebook, and join a vibrant community of risk-takers and power-players.

Your Turn! celebrates the art of game design and the joy of tabletop play with a full day of interactive experiences—featuring a collaborative game jam hosted by indie designers, open playtesting, art activations, a photo-ready tabletop-inspired set, and a film screening of The Hobby, exploring the cultural power of board games.

Whether you're a seasoned strategist, casual player, or curious newcomer, it's your turn to roll up and play.
