Location: Joondalup Library, Ground Floor Meeting Room

While POWAs regular screening space gets a new lick of paint, an opportunity for a Board Games day has arisen!

In place of our regular screening this week, POWA breaks out the boxes of boards for all of us to enjoy. Still meeting up at the Joondalup Library, we instead keep to the ground floor meeting rooms this time around for a larger, better lit space for us to all bring and play our favorite games – and while the committee will naturally bring their personal collection, we highly encourage anyone and everyone to bring their own games, of any type or fashion, for the group to enjoy. Whether it’s your family copy of Monopoly or your favorite 4-hour-long German card game, or anything in between, you are welcome to add to the pile!

That said, there is only a little bit of structure for this day – meaning that people are encouraged to pick out games from the pile that they want to play, so we offer no promises for what specific games will get played on the day. If you want to organise a specific game for the day though, why not start a discussion on our Discord? A joining link, for those who are yet to do so, can be found on our website’s “About” page.

There is a little bit of structure though; during the last chunk of the event, a session of the Alien: the Roleplaying Game is being organised. Thankfully, the open-ended nature of the game means that you do not need to reserve a place ahead of time, nor provide any dice, papers or pens – everything you need will be provided, so if the mood only strikes you on the day, simply ask to join in. The Alien TTRPG is scheduled to begin setup around 3:30pm, hopefully to end before the doors close at the library at 5:00pm.

Entry for this event will follow our regular screening lines, being $4 for members, and $5 for guests, though if this happens to be your first time at POWA, it will be free. As mentioned above, this meet will take place not in our regular room, but in the ground floor meeting room – if you don’t want to look at the map of the library, the ground floor meeting room is quite literally located directly below the upstairs meeting rooms – they share a floor/ceiling! The event will start at the same time as the Libraries’ opening – 1:00pm, and will conclude before the Library closes at 5:00pm.

We hope to see you there!

Event Location: Event Cinemas Innaloo

Cinema time once again as POWA makes an outing to catch “Spy X Family Code: White” on the big screen!

POWA’s community was polled on what session to catch, and POWA picked the Saturday 20^th, 6:30pm session at Event Cinemas Innaloo!

As always, though the movie will start at 6:30pm, it is highly recommended that you arrive early enough to get everything in order – that is, to find the group, buy your ticket, any snacks and drinks and so on and so forth.

And, as always, POWA is not able to guarantee a seat in the cinema – either purchase your ticket in advance, arrive earlier than usual to buy one, or run the possibility of arriving to a booked-out cinema.

“He’s a spy. She’s an assassin. Together, Loid and Yor keep their double lives to themselves while pretending to be the perfect family. However, their adopted daughter Anya, a telepath, knows both of their exciting secrets unbeknownst to them. While under the guise of taking his family on a weekend winter getaway, Loid’s attempt to make progress on his current mission Operation Strix proves difficult when Anya mistakenly gets involved and triggers events that threaten world peace!”

We hope to see you there!
