TNY Presents is taking a short, two-month summer siesta, while we prepare for the fall. However, we'll be back in August to celebrate Pittsburgh lit culture again!

We have a fantastic line-up of authors for August, and we'll be sliding comfortably into the winter with an equally excellent group of musicians, writers, and poets.

In the meantime, The New Yinzer does have several summer events lined up. One of which is 1970s-themed. A Gore Vidal impersonator will be emcee-ing in a very smart suit and a pair of Vidal-worthy vampire brows. It will be held on Friday, July 24, 2009 at 8:00 p.m. at Brillobox. Come celebrate literature and music with us!

Watch this space for more information on TNY Present's excellent August literary and musical guests!
