Wednesdays with PGH Cheers & Chess at Cinderlands Warehouse

Cinderlands Warehouse

The PGH Cheers & Chess social club's second weekly home is Cinderlands Warehouse in the Strip District, where it meets every other Wednesday evening. The night is deliberately low-stakes and social: there is no set agenda, players come and go as they like, and the group provides boards for anyone to use. Wednesday nights are kept on the calendar only when at least ten people RSVP, so regulars are asked to RSVP or email the organizer.

Wednesdays with PGH Cheers & Chess at Cinderlands Warehouse is a class open to all levels, held at Cinderlands Warehouse in Pittsburgh, PA. It is free to attend. The class runs weekly. Schedule: Every other Wednesday 7:00-10:00 pm; RSVP requested - Wednesday nights run only when at least 10 people RSVP. Check Cinderlands Warehouse's site for the latest availability and booking.
