Part of our Epic D&D Skills series – make your D&D Epic!
6- 9 pm Tuesdays in August
Want to turn your D&D game at home into an epic event? Want to learn how to build suspense and theatricality with minimal investment? Join our D&D Masterclass – the Craft of DMing, Tuesdays in August from 6 – 9 pm. Like all of our Masterclass series, topics chance, so this is not the same list of topics from April – please read carefully!
One fee of $60 covers the whole month of classes – normally $20 each, this all inclusive price covers all the things you’ve been curious about while playing D&D. Learn from expert painters, DMs, and community coaches to hone your “D&D-related skills” so that you’re ready to DM, or play some next level games with great visuals. It’s all right here as part of our Epic D&D event series.
Important: Due to a limited edition hamster model (I can’t believe I just wrote that), seating is limited, so preregistration is essential.
Topics Schedule
- Tuesday, August 6: Getting Cute: Giant Space Hamster Painting
- Learn to paint a Giant Space Hamster and participate in a round table discussion of “cuteness” at the table and when to DM with it or lean into it
- Tuesday, August 13: Improve your Improv: Character is life
- Improv workshop led by fan-favorite Eric Loughlin of Take 5 Studios focusing on creating a lifelike character from a prompt or to fit into a campaign

Preregistration is absolutely critical for us to provide the best possible experience. There is no requirement that you participated in Epic D&D, but if you did, this class is setup with you specifically in mind.
