Dungeons & Dragons Weekly Thursday Session 2

At Anime Kat, a weekly store-run Dungeons and Dragons campaign uses Fifth Edition rules. Seating depends on what the DM can comfortably manage, and new players can start when spots are available. The adventure unfolds in a custom setting designed for cooperative storytelling, mixing open exploration with labyrinth challenges that carry an emerald motif, plus anime influences like magical‑girl elements and performer‑focused mechanics. Tones range from bright to more intense, with a strong focus on character-driven plots, memorable roleplay, and stories that build over time. Two independent Thursday tables take place in the same world. Their parallel arcs are planned to meet in a shared finale, and anyone attending both tables is effectively playing in two separate campaigns. Before a first visit, confirm the appropriate character level. A $5 fee applies to each player at the table. DMs and GMs do not pay a fee. From each player fee, $3 returns as store credit that can be used on products, excluding events. The DM or GM receives $2 in store credit per registered player, also valid on products only. Each session is led by a single DM or GM. Scheduling updates, availability, and announcements are shared through the community Discord, and the store can provide additional details.

Store staff are still getting familiar with the game, so there is not a formal instructor yet and everyone is learning together.

As the community develops, monthly Summoner Skirmish tournaments are scheduled to offer organized play.

This event is part of an ongoing series held on the fourth Thursday every third month, with an adjusted schedule in December for the holidays.

Dungeons & Dragons Weekly Thursday Session 1

Anime Kat hosts a store-organized Dungeons & Dragons group that uses the 5th Edition rules.

The focus is on character-driven narratives, memorable roleplay, and long-term story development. The group meets weekly with two separate sessions, each operating as its own independent table. Both tables exist within the same world and follow parallel storylines that are intended to merge toward a shared endgame. Participating in both sessions means playing in two different campaigns. Space is limited to what a single Dungeon Master can manage, and only one DM or GM leads each table. Players can join at any time, and should confirm what character level to bring before their first session. There is a $5 table fee per player, while DMs and GMs participate for free. Each paying player receives $3 in store credit redeemable on products, not events, and DMs or GMs receive $2 in store credit per registered player, also redeemable on products, not events.

Their music carries a clear stance against the pressures of consumer culture.

Holy Locust brings boundary-pushing American folk that moves from raw and experimental to tuneful and anthemic, stacking evocative vocal harmonies over dynamic rhythms and memorable melodies while strings surge and wail. Their music carries a haunting streak and a clear stance against consumerist exploitation, and it suits both focused listening rooms and more unconventional spaces. Admission follows a sliding scale from $10 to $25, with tickets available at the door.

Schoenberg’s Society: Reimagined

Violinist Erin Hennessey and pianist Gabriel Merrill-Steskal recreate the spirit of Arnold Schoenberg’s Society for Private Musical Performances, evoking the intimate, forward-looking atmosphere of early 1920s Vienna where contemporary music could flourish outside the gaze of conservative concert halls and critics. The program includes staples associated with that circle by Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel, alongside Bela Bartok’s Second Rhapsody for Violin and Piano. It also shines a light on Mary Dickenson-Auner, a violinist and composer who performed in the Society’s concerts yet received limited recognition at the time. Her Irish Melody for Violin and Piano, long unheard since the early 20th century, receives its American premiere. Hennessey appears regularly as a soloist, orchestral, and chamber musician across the United States, the United Kingdom, and Ireland, with work that includes collaborations with leading Irish ensembles. She became Artistic Director of the Olympic Strings Workshop in 2024 and is a PhD researcher at the Royal Academy of Music focusing on the chamber music of Mary Dickenson-Auner, with studies at Oberlin Conservatory, Whitman College, and the Royal Irish Academy of Music, where she taught until 2023. Merrill-Steskal is a multifaceted pianist and scholar whose recent projects range from commissioning new works for fortepiano to preparing and recording a critical edition of a Josepha Auernhammer violin sonata on period instruments, and he has appeared as a soloist with the Ann Arbor Symphony in Prokofiev’s Third Piano Concerto. He has earned awards in international competitions, held fellowships at major festivals, and recorded for Blue Griffin Records for an upcoming release of new piano music by William Horne. Presented by Field Hall. Tickets are priced at $28 to $38 for adults and $15 for youth up to age 18. Card purchases through the Ludus platform include a 5 percent service fee, which can be avoided by paying with cash or check at the box office.
