About Us
What We Do
The Chess Quarter's focus is offering young people the opportunity to play chess, learn this great game and reap the rewards of exercising their minds. Chess is not only an enjoyable pastime, studying and practicing the game contributes to enhancing critical thinking skills among other benefits. We are an educational enrichment organization which seeks to provide a positive environment for chess learning and for chess playing experiences. Here you will find information on chess lessons, chess camps and chess tournaments. There are also chess events that allow friends and family members to just relax and enjoy a shared chess experience.
We partner with schools and other educational organizations to provide enrichment programming and enjoyable chess activities or events. Our hope is to foster a problem solving and growth mindset in the young people with whom we are privileged to share the game of chess.
