Pick of the Day: McSweeney’s 25th Anniversary Extravaganza (in NYC) 5/10
One of the best recurring collections and publications of short form humor and literature adjacent to that has been, for a quarter of a century, McSweeney’s Quarterly Concern. Authors and humorists alike including Michael Ian Black and Joyce Carol Oates have been included in its pages for two and a half decades.
To celebrate, McSweeney’s has enlisted celebrated and renowned humorist John Hodgman and The Magnetic Fields’ Stephin Merritt to mark their 25th Anniversary to be held live (and on live-stream) at Symphony Space (Peter Jay Sharp Theatre) on Wed. May 10th at 7:30PM ET/4:30PM PT.
Join in for the high brow merriment and esteemed evening of the written word (and many other art forms) starting at $32 (and $25 for live-stream). Discounts for Symphony Space members available. You can and should go get tickets here and make this Wednesday in May one of your classiest evenings that entire month.
