Works Cited Photo Funnies at Quimby’s!
Thursday, October 18th, 7:00 PM
FREE
Come visit the Works Cited Photo Studio. Have your photo taken, and then defaced, middle school-style by the creators of Works Cited. During the hour, your photo, along with all your friends’ photos, will be arranged and compiled in a mini-yearbook of all the Quimby’s faithful. The end result will be a portrait of yourself for you to take home, fully defaced in thick ink lines and moderately inappropriate captions. Every entry will be compied into an online yearbook posted on the Eye Rocket website.
