Loose Change' announces 5.1 issue release party

Winter is here

Loose Change, a literary arm of the non-profit organization WonderRoot, is about to — and we mean RIGHT about to — release its newest Winter 2015 issue of the Loose Change magazine. The publication, which showcases both literary and visual art across genre and discipline, will feature work by Eric Baus, Timothy Liu, Miranda Mellis, Keith Waldrop, and others.
?
? Other featured artists are Loose Change write- in-residence Laura Carter, Bruce Covey, and Megan Volpert, who will also be doing readings of their work at the release event. All three contributors are Atlanta-based powerhouses — with laundry lists of published work and professional achievement. Based on the Eastside of the city with her cats, Carter published two works last year, Chaos Provisions and Beginning of Way. In the same year, Covey published his sixth book of poetry while continuing to publish and edit Coconut Books and Coconut magazine — in addition to curating the online poetry reading series, What’s new in Poetry. Volpert, the current Teacher of the Year at her high school for teaching English, has also authored five books on communication and popular culture. ?

And these are just the ones reading at the release event. ?? ?

Free and open to the public, the Loose Change 5.1 Issue Release Party will be held tonight, Fri., Feb. 20 at 8 p.m. at the Highland Inn Ballroom. There will be a bar! It will be a blast! ?? ?

If you are interested in contributing to the Loose Change 5.2, submissions will be accepted here until March 1. ??
