About this Event
December 5th 4:30-7:30
Location: 1650 W Foster Ave, Chicago, IL 60640-2014, United States
Well. Here we are.
Billy Bullion was many things: a director, actor, provocateur, writer, leader, occasional agent of chaos, and a person who was very difficult to summarize in a few tasteful paragraphs. So we're not going to try.
Instead, we're getting together to do what Billy did best: gather people, tell stories, and enjoy each other's company.
Join us for an afternoon/evening of drinks, snacks, mingling, catching up, and remembering Billy in all his many forms. There will be a video confessional booth for anyone who wants to leave a story, a memory, an anecdote, or perhaps some evidence that should probably have remained buried.
A few people will share some words, but this isn't a formal funeral and there is no expectation that anyone sit still, remain stoic, or show up wearing all black and uncomfortable shoes (unless that’s your thing).

Friends, colleagues, collaborators, family, coworkers, community, we hope you'll join us. Please share this far and wide, and thank you for your patience.
Please note: unfortunately, the space is not wheelchair accessible and requires navigating stairs. We recognize this is a barrier and are looking into live streaming the speaker portion of the event so that those who can't join us in person can still be part of it.
