This event has passed.

Join The Onion's Editor in Chief (and Vermont-native) Cole Bolton and Senior Editor Jason Roeder for an evening of satirically skewering the nation's culture and politics. The multimedia presentation and subsequent question-and-answer session will highlight the Onion's universally revered reportage and delve into an analysis of the policies, personalities and coming Blood Purges of the Trump Administration. A book signing will follow.

Rising from its humble beginnings as a print newspaper in 1765, The Onion has grown into the single most powerful and influential organization in human history, boasting 15 billion daily readers in over 800 countries.
