Come and learn about the long (5,000year old) history of board and card games for our November 18th program!
Who hasn’t played a game with friends, family or competitively? We’ll talk about some of the most popular, obscure and beloved games - many invented right here in Minnesota, as well as how you can find where to play games with other enthusiasts in the Ely Area!
History Happy Hour delves into the rich history of the Ely, Minnesota Area with pint-sized stories that are informative and entertaining in less than a half an hour.
Join host, Jess Edberg, executive director of the Dorothy Molter Museum as she scratches the surface of a local history topic, inspiring listeners to take a deeper dive on their own.
