LIT launch party

This is actually the last issue of LIT that I read for- I haven't been able to get me act or body over to NS to keep up with the submissions or attend the meetings... sigh, but this party will be a lot of fun and the issue will be amazing!

*LIT 14 LAUNCH PARTY AND CELEBRATION!*
Friday, June 6th from 6-10 PM
Kellen Gallery @ The Sheila C. Johnson Design Center of Parsons
The Corner of Fifth Avenue & 13th Street

Featuring readings by...

NOELLE KOCOT
WILL COMERFORD
HEATHER CHRISTLE
IRINA REYN

Come eat, drink and be merry, surrounded by gorgeous art in the brand new Kellen Gallery! Come to say goodbye to LIT's departing prose editor, Scott Dahlie! But most of all, come for the memories.
