Last night, we headed to the Punch Garden at the Columbia Room for UNCENSORED DC's Media Preview Party! We snapped UNCENSORED pop-up shop "Makers Market" curator Jenn Barger with Proper Topper's Anna Fuhrman and D.C. Public Library Executive Director Rich Reyes-Gavilan. The Preview Party kicked off the celebrations surrounding the D.C. Public Library Foundation's Banned Books Week, which culminates with UNCENSORED: The Cocktail Party.
