SailorTwainCW_flyer100

One of our favorite webcomics is Sailor Twain, and we therefore feel very lucky to be its eventual publisher.

If you've been following along for this saga of mermaids the the Hudson River and steamboats and occasional letter-writing, now you have a chance to meet the author (the esteemed Mark Siegel) in person whilst on an evening riverboat cruise down the Hudson.

The Sailor Twain Sunset Sail is August 5th from 6pm – 9pm; tickets are available here. 

All the proceeds from tickets will go to support Clearwater, a foundation dedicated to supporting and preserving the Hudson River.
