You're invited to come to the book launch of Games for a Rainy Day which features 40+ micro-games. 

There will be an amazing performance by MCtheProfessor.Gov, a Boston & NYC based art collective. They perform public history lectures with an improvisational contemporary classical music ensemble. 

You'll be able to sit down and play games from the book after the performance and celebrate the launch of this kind of...massive anthology 🌧️☔️!! You will experience what it's like to be rain & play or hang as long as you like. 

There will be copies of the book available for purchase during the event & Txtbooks is also hosting a raffle for Palestine. We'll be putting together bundle prizes of txtbooks merch and all proceeds from the raffle (and 30% of book sales) will be donated to Connecting Humanity [providing people in Gaza with E-Sims].

We'll be ending the celebration with DJ sets from DJ Flapjack and DJ Moss on a Log. 

There will be a bar for drinks and you are welcome to BYOB~ 

Space is somewhat limited so it'd be great if you can RSVP but we wont turn anyone away. Masks are encouraged for those who are immuno-compromised💗

TXTbooks is an artist-run independent publishing initiative in Brooklyn, NY. Our interest is in self-publishing as a collective while facilitating projects with artists and writers working across many disciplines. Our best case scenario is to publish those who have not yet considered producing a zine, or at least don't consider it their main practice; Our ultimate goal is to create dumb jokes and passion projects with as many people as possible. 

Our publications are resolved via Risograph printing for cost-effective self production and as an informal way to aesthetically bind our output.

Founded in 2014, TXTbooks is currently maintained by Robert Blair, Thomas Colligan, Nichole Shinn, Rose Wong, and Kurt Woerpel.
