Read/Write Library hosts their FIRST EVER benefit book sale! On Sunday, April 28th from 1PM-5PM at the Empty Bottle on Western Avenue, you can peruse books, magazines, zines, ephemera and all manner of print donated over the years but for one reason or another never fit into Read/Write Library's Chicago-centric collection. The event is $5 at the door and is 21 and up only.
We really enjoy Read/Write and a grateful to be allowed to share their space on occaision for letter socials. We'll be at Rock, Paper, Scissors with a pile of all sorts of ephemera and other paper items for "repurposing", demonstrating how to make envelopes and postcards from basically anything. You'll never look at a cereal box the same way again!
- Paper hat and mask-making to be documented in a Glitter Guts Photobooth!

Wow, I SO wish I could be there!
