Bay Area! Nerd Night East Bay this Monday Oct 19

Hey Bay Area Tikiphiles

I will be part of the Nerd Night presentation on Monday October 19
Nerd Night is kinda like TED talk in a bar. But shorter, more casual and more fun

On my night I need you guys to dress to impress as there will be a contest!!
Yes, prizes will be given away for best dressed guy and girl and for best Tiki mug

Here is a synopsis of the speech
“American Tiki: A Lost and Found Art Movement”

Once a mainstream vernacular for everything from Soap-on-a-rope to the corner bar or liquor store, Tiki Style’s fall from grace left scattered matchbooks and menus to be discovered later and pieced back together like pottery shards. Once sacred soundtracks and signature souvenir drinking vessels collected dust on thrift shop shelves until rediscovered in the 1980s

Learn how this once-grand and pervasive, American art movement was resurrected as a subculture and then became popular again!
