We’re going underground tonight, August 11th
Join us for a subterranean meeting tonight. Same time, same place–7:30pm at the Democracy Center (map) in Harvard Square–except in the basement for a change.
Tonight, SEE Jerel Dye show original poster art for our upcoming MICE event! FEEL handmade paper that ROHO & other BCR members made only days ago at the Boston Paper Collective for the forthcoming limited art edition of Hellbound 2! The excitement is pulpable! Er…palpable…rather.
Join us again next week, also, when everything returns to normal.
