Event Details

Are you ready for a thrilling low-speed, low-stakes competition?  Compete to complete a 500-piece jigsaw puzzle in the shortest time! 

How will this work?

  • Space is limited, so please register online in advance.
  • The Library will provide 4 identical puzzles that are 500 pieces each, so only 4 teams may compete.  
  • You may register up to 4 members on the same team.  
  • If you sign up as a solo puzzler, you may be placed with other puzzlers whose team does not yet have 4 puzzlers.  
  • When a team finishes they should shout "DONE!" and raise their hands.  
  • If no teams complete the puzzle within 2 hours, the winning team will be determined by who has the least number of loose pieces left.  The team with the most complete puzzle wins.
