About this plan

If you love chess and enjoy a good conversation, the Chess Club at Biblioteca Publica Arborizadora Alta has a special session for you. Under the name 'Estrategias a fuego lento', the gathering mixes the board with the kitchen: pieces, pawns, and Bogota flavor come together in an afternoon built for learning through play.

The idea starts from the concept of Sitopia, which looks at how a city feeds itself through its gardens and its memory. From there, the group reviews the supply chain behind your pieces, cares for the central pawns, and works on defending the king when everything looks cornered. It is a free plan, welcoming, and very different from what you would expect from an afternoon at a library.

What to expect

  • Chess club open to the community
  • Reading on Sitopia and urban gardens
  • Bogota memory on the board
  • Care for the central pawns
  • Free afternoon at Arborizadora Alta

Who it's for

Great for amateur chess players, people curious about the game, and residents of Arborizadora Alta who want a cultural, free plan in Bogota.

Tips

  • Arrive a few minutes early to find the room inside the library.
  • You do not need your own board. The club welcomes open participation.
  • Bring a notebook and pencil if you like writing down openings and ideas to review at home.
  • Check the exact time on the BibloRed page before you leave.
