LAUNCH PARTY FOR THE THING QUARTERLY: DAVID KORTY
Night Gallery, Los Angeles
Saturday May 31 | 7PM – 10PM
According to THE THING…
Issue 23 by David Korty is … a secret until subscribers have it in hand, but we can reveal three things:
1. We are officially launching the issue with a party in David’s hometown (Los Angeles) on May 31 at Night Gallery
2. The issue is something that warrants a tournament, and that’s what is happening at this launch party. This tournament will start with 25 players and, through a process of elimination, conclude with a final showdown and a $200 cash prize for the winner.
3. This tournament does not involve any form of intense physical activity. But it does involve a stroke of good luck and in fact, you may feel wiser, happier, and more natural (hint) after taking part.
Want to Play?
You can take part simply by RSVPing and reserving your spot (do it quickly – only 25 spots available). We will send you instructions on how to play the game so that you can prepare. There will also be refs on hand to teach you.
Of course, if you don’t want to play, you can always just come out, have a beer, and spectate.
