Come ready to bedazzle for only a $5-$15 sliding scale cover. RSVP on eventbrite with the link in my bio to reserve your clack fan!

I found this ad from the American Library Association in a 1970s National Geographic & knew I needed to honor her in collage form I LOVE LIBRARIES

I can’t wait to be back at The Void! Saturday, May 23 from 6-9 pm I’ll be hosting a collage lighter workshop. Sip some sake and make a craft guaranteed to get you major compliments on every bar patio. Perfect for my friends in search of chill Saturday night plans: I’ve found a way to make crafting count as “going out” just for you! We’ll have a $5-$20 sliding scale cover for this event, which gets you everything you need to collage all over some lighters. RSVP at the link in my bio to secure your spot!

It’s shaping up to be a busy May and I simply can’t wait! On Sunday, May 3rd from 12-5 pm, I’ll be at the Chborro Zine Fest in Carrboro, North Carolina.

In preparation for Lexington Pride that Saturday, we’ll be decorating clack fans! Come ready to bedazzle for only a $5-$15 sliding scale cover. RSVP at the link in my bio to reserve your clack fan. @oldnorthbar Speaking of Pride, I’m selling at Lexington Pride! I’m so excited for many reasons, but most of all because this will be your first opportunity to shop our new pop-up bookstore, @bondhousebooks . My mom and I have been dreaming of being booksellers since she was reading to me in the womb, and it’s surreal to see that dream coming true on Pride Month Eve. Join us on May 30th from 12-10 pm to celebrate how gay Lexington is and browse our curated selection of queer books. @lexpridefest
