1. Nicola Denzey Lewis, a prominent Brown University scholar, has a new interpretation of the story behind 12 ancient Egyptian books that changed our understanding of early Christianity, after they were dramatically discovered in 1945. Tonight, she will share her ideas about just how and why these ancient books were buried in the desert, and reveal a tale of Christian mummies, magical books, and a tomb robbing that changed the world at 7 p.m. inside Room 109, Wyatt Hall, on the University of Puget Sound campus.
2. Susan Owen, professor of Communication Studies, Zaixin Hong, professor of Art, and Jeff Solomon, visiting assistant professor of English, will discuss "censorship in relation to the upcoming Tacoma Art Museum exhibition HIDE/SEEK: Difference and Desire in American Portraiture" at 5 p.m. inside the Trimble Forum on the University of Puget Sound campus.
3. R.R. Anderson's biting weekly sketches have become ingrained in Tacoma, part of our fabric, like stop lights that never change and functional alcoholism. Through the month of March, Amocat Café will exhibit 40 of Anderson's Tacomic drawings, which will be celebrated tonight at 6 p.m. in the form of an artist reception. Folksingers in Hell will be on hand to dole out some tunes. Local labor activists will turn selected drawings into performance art.
4. At 7:30 p.m. inside the Kenneth J. Minnaert Center for the Arts at South Puget Sound Community College in Olympia, Italy's Guitar Republic - more specifically Pino Forastiere, Stefano Barone, and Sergio Altamura - will blow you away with acoustic guitar awesomeness.
5. The Ram Restaurant and Brewery on Ruston Way hosts the Geeks Who Drink pub quiz, which consists of eight rounds of eight questions and is played in teams of up to six people. Questions are read aloud by the quizmaster; teams write their answers on provided sheets and turn them in at the end of each round. The team with the most points after eight rounds is the winner. Oh, and there's drinking involved, too. The fun begins at 8:30 p.m.
