TTRPGkids events and discord channel at Gary Con Ethereal!

TTRPGkids is sponsoring a designated kid-friendly discord channel for Gary Con Ethereal! This means that it’s a comfortable spot for kids and families to play tabletop RPGs during the virtual convention. I’m also setting up several panels and a workshop on some awesome topics and in collaboration with some wonderful creators, many of whom have been featured on TTRPGkids previously (now’s your chance to chat with them)! Check it out here, and sign up for some fun games, chats, and more!
