Published on: July 20, 2021
This July 20 is International Chess Day – a worldwide celebration of chess!
This year, celebrate by making plans to visit the World Chess Hall of Fame in Saint Louis to take a ‘trip around the world’ in the Pawns & Passports: Chess Sets from Around the Globe exhibition or get inspired in the Masterminds: Chess Prodigies exhibition, which tells the stories of notable chess prodigies. Chess lovers not able to attend in-person can visit worldchesshof.org to view any of the exhibitions virtually.
