SUMMARY:PIR - The Bridge Within
DESCRIPTION:Psychedelics in Recovery (PIR) The Bridge Within meets every Thursday from 5-6PM. PIR is a 12-step fellowship of people from all 12-step programs and other paths of recovery who share our experience\, strength and hope with each other. Our primary purpose is to pursue recovery and help others do the same\, as defined by the individual. As our third tradition states: “The only requirement for membership is an interest in psychedelics and/or plant medicines as an aid to our recovery process.” The Bridge Within explores the bridges necessary for profound healing—both inside ourselves and between each other.  This meeting focuses on integrating the profound insights from our psychedelic experiences with the practical\, daily work of our 12-step recovery.

SUMMARY:Book Release Party: Diabolically Good: The Movie Career and Afterlife of Horror Icon Vincent Price
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Bureau for the launch of Drew Pisarra’s Diabolically Good: The Movie Career and Afterlife of Horror Icon Vincent Price! \nRSVP TO THIS EVENT \nHalloween in August? Why not?! As its subtitle suggests\, Drew Pisarra’s latest hybrid is serving up All Hallow’s Eve a bit early. The book’s first half\, Price in Purgatory\, is an imaginative radio play about the titular actor’s Dantesque journey from Hell to Heaven. (“…hysterically funny and intensely thought-provoking…” — Arts Independent) The second part\, Price in Celluloid\, chronicles Pisarra’s decidedly personal exploration of Price’s extensive filmography\, including some hard-to-find made-for-TV gems\, as if Price were the whole point. (“joyously obsessive” — Maitland McDonagh). Special guests will make this a book launch you won’t forget! \nAfter the launch there will be time for Drew to sign copies of Diabolically Good\, which will be available for purchase at the Bureau! \n*** \nDrew Pisarra is the author of three poetry collections (Fassbinder: His Movies\, My Poems\, Periodic Boyfriends\, and Infinity Standing Up); two short story collections (You’re Pretty Gay and Publick Spanking); and two radio plays (The Strange Case of Nick M. and Price in Purgatory). A grantee of the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council\, Curious Elixirs: Curious Creators\, and Café Royal Cultural Foundation\, he is also a playwright whose works for the stage have included Tea Towels at Theater for the New City and Click at The Tank NYC as well as My Bedroom Is an Installation and Voiceover\, two experimental pieces co-written with Jerry Mouawad for Imago Theatre in Portland\, Oregon.
