LOST
April 15, 2014 @ 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm
$15Wandering streets in foreign cities, the compass in your head spinning… we find what we did not realize we were seeking. Cities sink, little things go missing, jungle creeps in to obscure whole civilizations, and sometimes we find ourselves profoundly lost.
Join us in raising a glass to wonders never to be seen again, places from our city’s past erased by earthquake, fire, and progress; to the ghosts of great cities and tales of seekers who were never seen again.
Featuring:
Beth Abdallah ~ Bonfire of the Vanities: Extremism the Harbinger of Loss
Chris Carrico ~ Scurvy: Lost & Found
Amy Widdowson Mains ~ Amelia Earhart: The Woman Who Flew into the Sunset
