The Urbana Free Library

MacFarlane-Hood Reading Room

Back for one weekend! Escape the past and get back to the present before time runs out.

If you missed the Library's escape room in December and January, you have one last chance to try it. Help us end the Library's year of 150th Anniversary celebration with a time travel escape room experience! Gather a team of 1-4 people and travel back to the opening of the Library's building, but when something goes wrong, can you put the pieces together to return to the present?

This 15-minute escape room is for ages 8 and up. Registration is required, and only one person on the team needs to register for the time. Registration opens on May 12.

This escape room was designed and built by students from the University of Illinois Informatics 418 class taught by CU Community Fab Lab staff. The 150th Anniversary celebrations are generously supported by The Urbana Free Library Foundation.
