Women in Toys launches the Tabletop Gaming Learning Community
Women in Toys has launched a new initiative called the Tabletop Gaming Learning Community.
The TLC is described as being an inclusive and supportive space where women who work in – or want to work in – the tabletop industry can ‘learn and grow from each other.’
The initiative is being led by women working in the tabletop industry and is designed to leverage diverse backgrounds, skills and experiences. Community members will share knowledge and resources, tackle challenges and celebrate successes.
“We aim to inspire new generations of women to join the tabletop gaming community and support future leaders in the industry,” read a statement from WiT.
The TLC’s first meet-up will take place virtually on Zoom on Thursday, March 21st at 2PM EST. It is free and open to all WiT members.
