We will also be releasing info about the third issue release event very soon. Also: did you hear about Weave's new assistant editors? They are fantastic! We could not have completed this issue without them.

Weave Miscellany!

Weave's editors have been busily preparing for spring which brings with it many reasons to celebrate! Here is a synopsis of all the literary happenings coming up with Weave.

Events Galore!

April brings National Poetry Month and we certainly will be celebrating in Pittsburgh. This week alone has so many events, so be sure to check out the Pittsburgh Poetry Calendar, or just check here weekly at the Weave Blog for updates each Sunday. More specifically, we are announcing the third installment of POETSBURGH, our collaborative reading series with Open Thread. It will be taking place Thursday, April 23 @ 8pm at the Zany Umbrella's Icehouse Artists' Studios in Lawrenceville. ALSO! The Weave Magazine Issue 02 release reading is set for Sunday, April 26 beginning at 6pm at Your Inner Vagabond in Lawrenceville. We will feature at least five contributors from this issue - possible more! You can be sure you'll hear more about these two events in the coming weeks.

Weave's Second Issue is almost here!

Issue 02 of Weave Magazine is on its way to print this week! It will be available for purchase at the end of the month - we'll be sure to notify you with details. If you haven't checked out our list of contributors, you should. If your mouth is watering for another taste of Weave, then here is a delicious snack to feed your need: the contributor list also features sneak peeks of work by Karen J. Weyant, Brian R. Young, Rosanne Griffeth and Davka.

Weave Blog Got it Going On!

We continue to bring you weekly updates of poetry events happening around Pittsburgh. We are also striving to bring you more reviews of contemporary work, featuring reviews from other writers. Mid-April also marks Weave Magazine's 1st birthday and we certainly will have a lot to say about our first year as editors. Check back often or subscribe in the sidebar.

Weave Reopens for Submissions April 15th!

We have taken a break from reading since we got back from Chicago, and we really do miss having submissions waiting for us in our inbox. Please do consider purchasing a copy of issue 01 - or better yet, buy a subscription and you'll get both issues for the discounted price. Check out our submission guidelines for the most updated information.

Between Liberties and Weave Magazine Celebrate on Nov 9th!

Weave Magazine is very pleased to announce that our release party will now feature a musical performance by Between Liberties. Between Liberties rocketed onto the scene in Pittsburgh late in 2007, quickly garnering a dedicated underground following with emotionally charged songs that surpass their years. The event is being held November 9th at 5pm at Your Inner Vagabond in Lawrenceville, PA.

We are so honored to have Between Liberties as part of our celebration for the first issue of Weave Magazine. This party promises to be a magical evening filled with music, art, poetry and of course, excellent company that we hope includes you! If you haven't already, be sure to RSVP to our Facebook event.

Here is a lovely music video performance by Between Liberties.
