Berkeley Chess School's 5th Annual Chess Festival

Come celebrate the game of chess at the 5th Annual BCS Chess Festival at Hillside School! Enjoy live music, delicious food and drink, a chess-themed performance on a life-size chess board, and plenty of chess games and carnival fun for the entire family. Test your chess skills against two young National Junior Champions and BCS' highly skilled teachers, play in a "bughouse" (multiplayer) tournament, jump in a bouncy house. Plus: face painting, arts & crafts (including origami!), a dunk tank, and a silent auction. Proceeds from this event will help secure a permanent home for the Berkeley Chess School. Join us on May 18th, and support chess education in Berkeley!

Admission is $5 for adults, $3 for children 12 and under. To sign up for this event, visit www.berkeleychessschool.org.
