Puzzle Swap
December 10, 2025
We are hosting a FREE community puzzle swap at Gangnam Food Hall next to Gangmam Market on December 10th. You are welcome to come and go any time between 7-9pm. We will have a puzzle swap where you can drop off a puzzle, take a puzzle. If there are extra puzzles remaining after the swap, feel free to take more.
We will also have a voluntary Center for Enriched Living (CEL) puzzle drive where you can donate a NEW puzzle that is large piece size and 100-200 pieces to the non-profit organization (gift-wrapping is optional).
There is also free 1.5-hour garage parking with a validated ticket.
All are welcome. We hope to see you there!
SPEED Puzzle COMPETITION
January 17, 2026
We are hosting a solo speed puzzle competition in Chicago for our first puzzle event in 2026! Individuals will compete in a 500-piece puzzle race with a 2-hour time limit. We will have an afternoon of fun, and free snacks and beverages will be provided! There will be an opportunity to win door prizes. We will have a puzzle swap table for those who want to exchange puzzles.
If you would rather watch the competition instead of competing, we have spectator tickets for sale that will also include the opportunity to participate in the puzzle swap and get free snacks and beverages.
