The Intersection is the hub for the various branches of PAX’s diversity initiative, PAX Together. The Intersection aims to be a reflection of the intersectional identities of gamers ranging from race, religion, personal presentation, and more. This space invites in a variety of nonprofits and community groups focused on elevating underrepresented groups’ experiences and addressing stigmas in gaming culture. It is a safe and supportive space for anyone who wants to find community and commonality with other people who play games.
The Intersection Hours:
- Friday - Saturday: 10:00am - 6:30pm
- Sunday: 10:00am - 6:00pm
The PTI Games Library features tabletop, board, and roleplaying games from small and independent BIPOC creators and creators of stigmatized identities. In addition to featuring these games, The PTI Games Library also uplifts attendees from these communities by providing safe space gaming tables with like-minded GMs, or Storytellers.
These games utilize safety tools, promote diverse and respectful tables, and encourage players and Storytellers to come as themselves. PAX recognizes that you can play any game at various locations throughout the show, but offers The Intersection tables with an expectation, not exception, of acceptance.
If you’re interested in being a Storyteller and running a safe space table in The Intersection, apply here!
