Remember playing Carmen Sandiego, Pac-Man, Arkanoid and Frogger on the old Apple II? Well, hold onto your neon clothing because you can do so again at the Jamaica Plain Branch Library

There's a "new" Apple II at the Jamaica Plain Branch Library at 30 South Street. Remember -- just like in school -- no hogging the computer.

We're excited to have an Apple II installation in our Makers' Space! Come relive your childhood with some great games...
