IN CONVERSATION WITH SAGE COFFEY "WINE GHOST" EVENTFresh from their month-long artistic residency in Kyoto, Japan, SAGE COFFEY returns to Challengers for an event celebrating all things WINE GHOST! She is fashion. She is drama. She insists that wine counts as a fruit. We're excited to have Sage back @ Challengers and equally excited to show you all the WINE GHOST GOES TO HELL graphic novel from Iron Circus Comics!
This will be a discussion (hosted by Bridget Bilbo) followed by a signing.
Friday, May 10th, 6pm.
ABOUT WINE GHOST GOES TO HELL
When she was alive, she was an alcohol-soaked train wreck. Now that she's dead... well, same, but she uses her supernatural powers to help folks out who've recently arrived in Hell and need to learn the ropes. Imagine if the magazine Hollywood Insider was a person. Now imagine that person is a dead alcoholic. That's Wine Ghost! She is fashion. She is drama. She insists that wine counts as a fruit. And she may be her newly dead friends' only hope of finding inner peace!
