Another tribute to the old PI! Thanks everybody!

From the admirable Brian Chin, a member of both the old PI and the new online-only, arts averse version:

Two-and-a-half months have elapsed since the Seattle Post-Intelligencer ceased print publication. Its passing has been commemorated through private parties, radio shows, documentary films and countless news stories.

This Wednesday night, the community gets its chance to say farewell. Journalism organizations from around the region are co-sponsoring a free public tribute to the newspaper and its contributions to Seattle.
The program will include a multimedia retrospective of the newspaper’s 146 years of publication, a musical performance by Heidi Muller and appearances by special guests including historian John Hughes and author Bruce Barcott. P-I favorites such as David Horsey, Art Thiel and Regina Hackett are scheduled to appear. Ken Schram will emcee.
The event will be from 6:30 to 8 p.m. Wednesday, June 3, at Town Hall. Admission is free but reservations are required. Call 206-331-1276 or e-mail seattlepitribute@gmail.com.

I’ve been asked to read a couple of letters to the editor about arts coverage. Arts coverage? Let’s not bring up arts coverage. In the new PI, there isn’t any.
