On Tuesday, May 3rd at 7 pm G.C. Waldrep and John Gallaher will read for The Clean Part Reading Series. Just like the previous two events, the reading will be held at the Drift Station Gallery, which can be found at the intersection of 18th & N in downtown Lincoln, NE. This will be the last Clean Part Reading of the semester, so come out to celebrate the re-establishment of the series and tell your (human) friends.
