Escape Artists: March and April 2014

So we’re finally rolling out our “Escape Artists” series, something I’ve been meaning to focus on for a long time. What in the holy hell is this about, you may ask? Well, we’re highlighting escapist people and events, whether they're here in Jacksonville or elsewhere. So check out the report below - and don't forget to submit your own escapism in the comments or to totheescapehatch(at)gmail(dot)com!

Past Escapism

Nerd Lunch Meetup

A few weeks back the nerds from Nerd Lunch met up with the Cult Film Club in Atlanta and a nerdy, culty time was had by all. Visit to the World of Coke? Check. Chowed down on tasty looking food? Check. Read more here. You can also listen to the podcast they recorded here.

True Detective Going Away Party

EH Team member Nick is moving to Carcosa North Carolina and we threw him and his bride a True Detective themed going away party. Why? Fugifweknow. Check out the pics below!

Made by hand by Matthew McConaughey himself.

"Black stars..."

I wish I could tell you we bought Big Hug Mugs for all of the guests.

Record Store Day

Record Store Day is once again upon us. Will you be venturing out to find a limited edition Ghostbusters LP? If you’re here in Jacksonville you may find some of us perusing the vinyl at Deep Search Records in Riverside. Check out their site here.
