Solve the mystery at Clueless: Murder at the Movies
We’re planning a movie marathon at ArtFarm, but what begins as an evening of “wholesome” entertainment quickly turns sinister when Pubert is discovered DEAD. But which of our silver screen darlings could have done the dastardly deed? Was it Cher on the highway with a white jeep? Pearl in the projection room with an ax? Or did he just choke on Bearcat Betty’s popcorn?
Are you the right detected to solve the mystery? Come see the sights and hear the alibis at ArtFarm on Saturday, December 6. Figure out whodunit, and win a season pass to the 2026 Tippitywitchet season at ArtFarm Annapolis! Or just watch the mystery unfold and let the entertainment itself be your reward.

Audience: Teens (Ages 11+)
The five kingdoms are on the brink of war, the realm is in chaos, and Dame Peritchkova’s Academy of Speechcraft and Calligraphy is closed for the foreseeable future as the Dame themself has left for battle – leaving you without a graduation gala! As if that wasn’t enough, the saboteur you’ve been chasing for the past several months has turned out to be Andrea, your best friend’s betrothed, and the evidence is ironclad that they are responsible for the chaos and strife unfolding across the continent. But you suspect all is not as it seems with your friend and there is more at work leading Vanda into peril. Guess you’ll just have to prove your friend’s innocence and save Vanda yourself, won’t you?
Join us in an ongoing D&D campaign with an eye to inclusion and queer liberation.
Registration for this event will close on February 20, 2025 @ 5:30pm.
