This January, Palisades Branch Library is launching “Bridge for Beginners” and “Duplicate Bridge,” two new monthly series of games.
Bridge for Beginners welcomes those just starting out playing bridge to the library to learn from a “skilled player” who will be volunteering their time to teach others how to play the game. The first session of Bridge for Beginners will take place on Friday, January 26, at 1 p.m.
Bridge was described as a card game using a standard, 52-card deck, enjoyed by players of all ages.
“If you’ve always wanted to learn bridge, this is your chance,” according to the library. “Just come on by.”
The first session of the Duplicate Bridge series will take place on Friday, January 19, from 12:45 to 3 p.m. Space is limited and attendees are asked to RSVP by emailing franblaustein@gmail.com.
Duplicate Bridge is a form of the game, but the set of bridge deals are played by different competitors.
“The organizer has requested that people come with partners, but if you don’t have one, please come anyway,” according to the library. “There may be other people who don’t have partners with whom you can partner for the afternoon.”
All events take place at Palisades Branch Library, located at 861 Alma Real Drive.
