The recent world championship match between Magnus Carlsen and Fabiano Caruana has sparked a renewed interest in chess in the United States. On May 9, at 11:00 am at the Nashua Public Library, forty people will match wits playing chess with Grand Master Fidel Corrales from Massachusetts. GM Corrales will move from player to player, playing all 40 games simultaneously.

The Nashua Public Library has generously sponsored the event and anyone interested can sign up on the Nashua Public Library’s website at the Events section. There is no charge but space is limited to 40 people. There are still some spots open.

For those interested in more informal chess games, the Nashua Chess Club meets every Saturday from 2:00 to 5:00 pm in the Activity Room of the Nashua Public Library.
