Thank you to everybody who attended our Arcade Age Opening & Dance Party on Friday, November 18. We were excited to welcome 450 community members of every age to be the first to play the games, navigate our Stranger Things scavenger hunt, snap Polaroids, and join the 80s dance party. Find photos from the event on our Facebook and Instagram and tag us in yours!
