HEY LADIES: The Fremont Abbey will be hosting a ladies-only Dance Dance Party Party (DDPP) tonight in the church's basement for those who would rather break a sweat to Madonna than go to the gym as usual. Described as a "female-only cult phenomenon," DDPP has no instructors, fitness goals, and absolutely nothing to prove. Damn straight. Expect to do a lot of dance, dance, dancing and have a ton of fun with some fellow ladies bustin' a move to all the usual dance party favorites.

7:00 p.m. // The Fremont Abbey Arts Center, 4272 Fremont Ave. // Tickets: $5

ANALOG TYPE: For the past year, we have been slightly obsessed with wood type and woodcuts (Antonio Frasconi? Amazing!) so we were super excited to see that Typeface will be playing tonight at the Northwest Film Forum. This new documentary explores the Hamilton Wood Type Museum of Two Rivers, WI and investigates the history of wood type along with the convergence of modern design and traditional technique.

7, 9 p.m. // Northwest Film Forum // Tickets: $6-9

BOYS AND GIRLS: Aryn Kyle, author of the award-winning novel The God of Animals, will be in town to read from her latest book of short stories, Boys and Girls Like You and Me tonight. The collection "probes the frequently wrongheaded choices girls and young women make to feel happy and loved" yet has wit and plenty of humor where that came from. If we weren't going to see Typeface, this is where we'd be. Plus, a great excuse to check out Elliott Bay's new digs if you haven't yet.

7 p.m. // Elliott Bay Book Company, 1521 10th Ave. // FREE
