When we Game Together
In a world where loneliness is on the rise and true connection feels harder to find, Advance Three Spaces is on a mission to bring people back together. Whether you’re an old pro or just curious, our events are designed to be welcoming, inclusive, and joyfully human.
We’re not just playing games. We’re rebuilding our sense of community.

our mission
Advance Three Spaces is a 501c3 charity dedicated to building a stronger, healthier community through the shared experience of board gaming. By bringing people together around a table, we foster empathy and understanding while reducing social isolation.
Summer ‘25 Campaign
This summer we are raising money for the Starkey Ranch Friends of the Libraries to help fund their amazing community programs. All event ticket donations will to the Friends!
Why “Advance Three Spaces”?
Beyond the board game reference, the idea of “third spaces” refers to places outside the home (first space) and work (second space) where people gather, socialize, and build community. Third spaces play a vital role in fostering a sense of belonging and improving quality of life by providing informal, neutral, and accessible environments. Without the community found in third spaces, we lose trust in each other, we lose empathy, and we lose the joy that comes from being part of something bigger. Unfortunately, third spaces are on the decline. We’d like to change that.
