About
On tour to promote her new book Lost and Found: A Compassionate Guide to Homeownership, Mercury Stardust joins us at AB Tech's Ferguson Auditorium for a one-woman comedy show! The show—blending comedy, the trans experience, and DIY knowledge—will be followed by a short audience Q&A.
This event is taking place at 340 Victoria Rd on the AB Tech campus to facilitate a larger group. Seating is limited, so participants must register, with a sliding scale donation requested to cover the cost of venue rental. Masks will be required.
Want a book signed? We're also hosting Mercury for a meet & greet on Haywood Road at 6pm!
