Last night's PNG at MCL AV Club was a (dad joke incoming) Smash-ing good time! It was our third and final Livestream-based AV Club event, and we learned how to incorporate cameras and lighting into our live stream, alongside OBS Studio, USB capture cards, and custom graphics. Then we played some Nintendo Switch and streamed it on the library's YouTube channel.

All PNG at MCL events are free and open to everyone aged 10 - 18. No library card is required.
