This year's escape room theme is The Secret Library...
Once upon a time, there was a library unlike any other. The bookshelves lined with ancient novels, journals, and art books. The true magic, however, lay hidden within the library's oldest section—a secret room that had long been forgotten by most, save for a few local artists and historians.
This forgotten room, once the creative sanctuary of a mysterious, long-lost artist named Paige Reed, was said to be a place where art came to life. However, one day, she disappeared without a trace, leaving behind only cryptic sketches, unfinished canvases, and a peculiar collection of tools.
The library, over the years, became a hub for teens to explore their own creativity. They would often come together, sketching in the corners, reading graphic novels, and experimenting with different media. But despite their love for art, no one could seem to decipher the enigma of Paige's room—until now.
Decipher the puzzles and be reward with a treat from the Ghost of Paige Reed. Will you be the one to crack the code? Or will you, like so many before, get lost in the art?

The Sprague Branch's high-gabled English Tudor style building has served the Sugar House community for three generations. The building was selected by the American Library Association in 1935 as the "Most Beautiful Branch Library in America." The two-level facility was opened in 1928 and has been renovated several times as use continues to increase. An expansion project to add a new public meeting room and remodel the building was completed in April 2001, which increased the square footage to 13,058. As the Sugar House shopping district sprouted up, the Sprague Branch continues to hold its historical charm and provide community members with outstanding public library services. Free parking is available to the east and south of the building, and free wi-fi access is provided throughout the library.
