Roleplay by the Bay: A Live D&D Event
About this Event
Join us at the Koret Auditorium in the San Francisco Public Library (Main Branch) for the very first Roleplay by the Bay: a one-day live Dungeons & Dragons event celebrating science, storytelling, and collaborative gaming!
The day begins with a special interview panel at 10:15AM, featuring scientists from the Damon Runyon Cancer Research Foundation. They will discuss the career paths that led them into science, and offer a look at the amazing work they do in the field of cancer biology and medicine.
After the panel, from 11:00AM-1:00PM, the scientists will step into a fantasy adventure of their own in a live Dungeons & Dragons adventure led by Dungeon Master Gregory Wilson. See what happens when science meets fantasy as the researchers become heroes and roll the dice against the monsters and perils of D&D!
The final event of the day is from 2:00PM-5:00PM, featuring former teen interns from SFPL’s YouthWorks D&D Program in a live D&D adventure led by Dungeon Master Zac Clay. This game will showcase the creativity, confidence, and storytelling skills of the young people who have helped bring Dungeons & Dragons programming to San Francisco's library community!
Whether you are a longtime D&D fan, curious about tabletop roleplaying games, interested in science research and communication, or simply looking for a unique live event, we invite you to enjoy a day of science and performance art with Roleplay by the Bay!
