Freadom: Celebrating Our Right to Read! Join the ACLU of Wisconsin and Public House Queer Tuesdays to recognize Banned Books Week ~

We'll be reading from Banned Books at the Riverwest Public House, listening to live spoken word from Milwaukee area creatives, playing a wicked game of QueerTuesdayTrivia, & enjoying great MUSIC, friends, and fun.

Wanna dress up as your favorite banned book character? Go for it! (keep it classy friends, this is a family friendly program)

As if that weren't enough to get geeked about, we're very excited to unveil the "censorship-themed" drink special on the menu this year!

Thanks to event partners and sponsors: Public House, Woodland Pattern Book Center, Wisconsin Center for the Book, Art Night Books and Lost World of Wonders, Milwaukee's largest comic book store.

If you would like to be a sponsor of this event, contact us at liberty@aclu-wi.org.

You can also find out about Banned Books Week events happening around the country at www.bannedbooksweek.org/events. If you have an event happening in your Wisconsin community, please submit the information to the national website and we will mention it with other media coverage of the week.
