New study: Kidnap helps you forget Winter.
This just in: Kidnap is happening in March.

Please join us Tuesday, March 29th at 7:30 pm for the perfect evening! Poets Amber Nelson (Seattle) and A. Minetta Gould (Boise) stop by on their West Coast Adventure to read to us their excellent words, and local faves The Tumblers loan out two of their number to serenade us with dulcet tones.

As always, everyone is welcome. Please bring friends, drinks to share, flyers to hand out, books and ephemera to sell, and/or cash for the donation jar. Or just bring your face, because we all like looking at it!
