AND!!!!!!

for those of you in upstate new york this week.....COME TO A FREE THING TOMORROW NIGHT!!!!!!! in hudson!

at our dear friend melissa auf der maur's factory art-church, the basilica.

if you know the "art of asking", you'll know that lewis hyde's book "the gift" was a huge influence on my way of thinking about the gift economy and the economy of asking and receiving. 

this is a WHOLE DOCUMENTARY about the book and the filmmaker, robin, is a fan who asked if i'd do a post-screening chat with her.

well...YES!!!!!!!!!!

this should be really powerful.

it's TOMORROW:
thursday, june 27th
wildfire food truck: 6:30pm
doors: 7pm
screening starts at 7:30pm

yep,FREE.

and i'm going to be RECORDING IT FOR PODCASTING IN THE FALL, so you can SAY YOU WERE THERE!!!! BRING YOUR SOUL AND THINKING CAP.
