Teacher Jay Stallings, a U.S. chess expert, will be on hand to help beginners learn the game and experienced players develop new strategies. Bring a friend or find a partner in the Sculpture Garden.
Chess sets and space are limited, so participation is first come, first served.
See summer out with an old-fashioned afternoon of chess, conversation, and friendly competition.
