“How to Make a New York Times Crossword Puzzle”

“How to Make a New York Times Crossword Puzzle”

That’s the subject of my upcoming talk and demonstration at the Connecticut Science Center for their Adult Coffee Club, on Tuesday, November 6, from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.

Join us as we explore the fun and challenging world of puzzles. Who makes the crosswords that appear in the New York Times? Hundreds of people around the country, all of whom share a love of wordplay and puzzles. Take a look behind the scenes with Eric Berlin, a professional puzzle constructor who has contributed dozens of crosswords to the New York Times. He’ll demonstrate what goes into the creation of a successful crossword puzzle — from coming up with a theme, to making the grid, to devising the clues.

Admission is $15 for non-members, $5 for members.
