Amethyst Arsenic

Amethyst Arsenic

If you’re in the Boston area this Monday, August 22nd, come out and celebrate the latest addition to Beantown’s literary scene.  

The Amethyst Arsenic Poetry Journal will be hosting a release party on Monday, August 22nd, at 7 p.m., in the backroom of The Burren, in Davis Square.

There’s a $5-$10 cover (sliding scale), and the event will feature music from Kristen Ford (worth the price of admission on her own, if you ask me), Jade Sylvan, and The Whiskey Boys. Readers from the inaugural issue will include: Brandon Amico, Rusty Barnes, Gale Batchelder, Cassandra Clarke, Jim Cronin, Judson Evans, Laura Kiesel, Robin Linn, Valerie Loveland, Chad Parenteau, Charlie E. Rose, Christopher R. Vaughan.

There’ll be an open bar and the event kicks off with a meet & greet dinner (meat and vegetarian), followed by music and readings. Some of the editors from PDR will be there, so we hope you’ll say hello. You can also stay late for a screening of the cult classic Harold and Maude.
