The Importance of Being Genius

Fri, Sep 14, 2012 at 7:30pm

Online ticket sales have ended, but tickets are still be available at the door if you arrive before 7:15pm.

Seattle has so many writers but very few are actual geniuses.

Tonight, we celebrate three of the smartest (and best) writers in the city—graphic novelist Ellen Forney and poets Ed Skoog & Kary Wayson—with a reading and Q&A hosted by The Stranger book critic and A&P writer Paul Constant.

This reading will only make you more intelligent and, since there’s also a bar, whatever you don’t understand you can blame on the booze. Proceeds benefit Richard Hugo House and the 2012 Genius Awards.

General Admission Tickets: $10

Juice Lover Package: $30
Ticket includes admission and one bottle of Rebecca Brown Genius Juice - an amazing new wine by Sparkman Cellars that raises $$ for The Genius Fund. The wine is said to be both delicious and talented. Bring it to a party and impress your nerdiest friends!
