The Greater Evansville Steampunk Society Presents Little Wars

H.G. Wells playing Little Wars

2:00pm - 4:00pm in the Browning Gallery

Join the Greater Evansville Steampunk Society at Willard Public Library for Little Wars, a whimsical game originally created in 1913 by H.G. Wells. Played on the floor using toy soldiers and clever strategy, participants can take on the role of commanding officer—or simply relax with a cup of tea and enjoy the spectacle.

No experience is necessary—rules will be taught, and all are welcome to watch or play.

Come for the history, stay for the fun, and enjoy an afternoon where literature, imagination, and play collide! ☕⚙️

All are welcome! Steampunk attire encouraged!
