Found Magazine in NYC May 8

radioflyermq

On Friday, May 8, join Davy Rothbart, creator of FOUND magazine for the only Manhattan stop on the FOUND Denim and Diamonds Tour.

This event is a low-budget benefit for The Institute for Collaborative Education (commonly known as ICE), an extraordinary New York City public school, filled with self-motivated, free-spirited, fun-loving critical thinkers who happen to be NYC teens (and near-teens). For less than the price of a movie, you will get an awesome evening of music, sword swallowing, theatrical mayhem and a truly dazzling recitation of some of the hilarious, crazy, profound, (and often profane) found notes that have found their way to FOUND HQ! If you've found something interesting on the street, or tucked into a library book, or waiting for you under your windshield wipers (a case of mistaken identity no doubt), please bring it to the event!

Davy will be performing with his brother Peter (FOUND's international heartthrob) who will play a glittering constellation of new breathtaking songs based on FOUND notes, FOUND's sword-swallowing phenom Brett Loudermilk, and NYC's legendary Story Pirates performing excepts of a new play, also based on some of FOUND’s notes. You heard me right, Ma. Sword swallowing.
