The Loft Literary Center and the Minnesota Magazine and Publishing Association team up for the eighth time to host a casual networking event that also celebrates the breadth of Minnesota’s magazines.
Editors and freelance writers gather for inspiration, education, and networking. A unique event to meet magazine professionals in a casual setting. Magazines from around the state will be on display. Put faces to names. Meet new folks. Light refreshments. Cash bar. Fabulous door prizes. Register at mmpa.net. Registration discounts when you register early and bring a colleague or two.
In February, you'll also want to reserve out some time for the Loft's Literary Love Fest as local literati shine as they riff about love. Or hate. Or the departure of an ex. Family. Community. Whatever makes their hearts go pitter patter around Valentine's Day. Featuring multiple readers and genres. Always a good time. Writers sharing the love include Phebe Hanson, Klecko, Tim Nolan, Jim Northrup, and Shannon Olson. This will be held at Kieran's Irish Pub, 601 1st Ave. N., Minneapolis. This is a Raking Through Books event cosponsored by the Loft, Kieran's, and the U of M Bookstores on Wednesday, February 09, 2011 starting at 5:30 pm.
