Get Out
COMICS: Local cartoonist salon Friends of the Nib, founded by Jim Woodring, will create a work of narrative sequential art right before your eyes. You may purchase a copy of said art at the end of the evening.
6-9pm, drop in anytime // Fantagraphics Bookstore & Gallery, 1201 S Vale St. in Georgetown //
TRIVIA: If you think Seattlest James asks tough questions, take a gander at sample categories at the World Affairs Council's Transnational Trivia Challenge: "Languages, The Cold War, Sumo Wrestling, National Capitols, or Middle Eastern Culture." Zoiks! Bring your brain, or at least an interest in sampling 50 international beers ($2.95 each!). The WAC encourages you to preregister online or by phone at (206) 441-5910.
6:30pm registration, 7pm quiz // Revolution Bar & Grill at EMP // $5 for World Affairs Council members and students, $10 anyone else
MOVIE: Obviously, if you've got tickets, you'll be catching David Lynch's Inland Empire at the Cinerama. If like Seattlest you're a mere mortal, the AFI-certified second-best movie musical is in town. Sharks. Jets. Officer Krupke. Yup, it's West Side Story.
7pm // Central Cinema at 21st and Union // $10
