Embrace your inner geek and be the geek that keeps on giving! Join The Society for Geek Advancement and Tubefilter for the first ever GeekOut! at the W Los Angeles - Westwood’s Whiskey Blue on May 11, 2009 from 7-10pm.
What is GeekOut?
GeekOut is all about celebrating your inner geek. We're bringing together geeks from the tech and entertainment worlds for this invitation only event, with hostess Shira Lazar, to celebrate what it really means to be passionate about the things we do and the
people we do them with. Sip on Geektinis, rock out to Dublab’s live streaming DJ sponsored by Honda, make your best geek pose at the digital photobooth,
get your GeekOut shirts thanks to NerdyShirts, and tell the world about it on the 12seconds patio.
Give Back
We're also raising money to benefit Room To Read, a non-profit organization that is building schools and libraries for children in developing countries around the world.
I am a Geek!
The event will also celebrate the launch of I AM A GEEK!, a rallying cry for geeks around the world.
