Frank Warren, founder of PostSecret will be speaking in the Wendy Williamson Auditorium on Wednesday, Sept. 19, at 7:30 p.m. His lecture is titled 'PostSecret: Art, Stories, and Freedom of Speech.'

PostSecret is an ongoing community blog where people from around the nation can anonymously send in secrets about themselves, both comical and heartbreaking. The controversial project is in its seventh year and has already expanded into several books and a touring museum exhibit. Warren will talk about the challenges PostSecret has faced and why it remains vital. The project embraces all that is great about the First Amendment and, as the PostSecret community began to expand world wide, this protection of free speech became more important than ever.

Free for everyone. This event may contain adult themes. Viewer discretion is advised. This event is part of UAA's Constitution Week and presented by Student Activities.
