Want to have more fun than one should have on a Friday night?
Grab your friends and head on out to Spark Arts in the Castro on Friday, March 16th, starting at 7:00 pm for a Charity/Book launch party hosted by Heather Jacks, an award winning author, Disco Loving Wine Ninja, Saint with the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence and a diehard SF Giants fan. No door fee required.
Jacks’ new book, My Headdress Is On Fire is about a White Girl growing up on & off Indian Land. It is a series of deliciously skewed essays that will bring you from Indian Land to the Australian Outback, single parenting to the Empty Nest. Jacks’ “full powers of smart wit are engaged” as she reveals stories about an Indian Chief, Bozo the Clown, Kupa Piti and David the Camel, with heart and candor.
The most fun part is that they will be giving away an award winning Haint Absinthe from Dogwood Distilling, at the free liquid art bar. There will also be a photo booth with The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a flash tattoo pop-up chair from Castro Tattoos, appetizers and lots of raffle prizes from local businesses.
Ten percent of all book proceeds, including sales this at launch, will be donated to Punks with Lunch, a non-profit harm reduction group providing food and other necessities to homeless people.
The event is free, but attendees are asked to bring a new health or toiletry item donation for Punks with Lunch. Space is limited. The public may RSVP for the event by visiting Eventbrite.
