October 9th / 7 PM / Free 

Howl! Happening and The Jackie Factory invite you to Celebrate

Beloved authoress, editrix and female-dominant icon TERENCE SELLERS was downtown royalty for four decades.  Best known for The Correct Sadist, her 1983 classic tome written as Mistress Angel Stern, she was also an important force in night culture. She left her mark during the Mudd Club years as The Contortions cover muse, at Jackie 60 and its reading series Verbal Abuse, at Blacklips, and as a Versailles Room fixture within Click + Drag and Mother. Like many a living legend, her clock ran out suddenly, and she left us in January 2016 after a very brief illness. This being her birthday week in October, we at The Jackie Factory are organizing a huge tribute at our new clubhouse Howl! Happening—the last place she loved in NYC. mothernyc.com/terence

Readings of her important works including The Correct Sadist and her memoir One Decadent Life will be front and center, along with video clips, photographs and a soundtrack of her essential music.  Participants will include members of The House of Domination, Falon, Johanna Constantine, DJ Althea Loveless (Mother), Bobby Miller, Chi Chi Valenti, Goodie Magazine and many more. Program in formation. Please contact [email protected] for more information.
