Escape Room
We now have two Escape Rooms for you to enjoy at home with your family!
Rescue the Mermaid’s Crown: Players try to save Queen Laguna’s crown from a ghastly gang of swashbuckling pirates. By solving puzzles and collecting keys, players will unlock the treasure chest and recover the stolen prize!
Escape from the Bermuda Triangle: Players try to break free from the Triangle by digging deep into its mysterious history of disappearances before they vanish themselves! Features more difficult puzzles and red herrings to challenge players, and may take longer to complete.

- I Spy (tabletop): We will have a tabletop I Spy challenge and you will have to find different items on it each week! This activity is sponsored by the Friends of the Newport Public Library.
