Linework nw

Reading Frenzy is very excited to announce that we will be working in conjunction with Linework NW on their first annual comics and illustration festival happening this April! At our location, on NE Mississippi Ave, we will be hosting an opening reception for the convention as well as an art show for acclaimed illustrators, and special guests, Jim Woodring and Michael DeForge. Reception will be held on Friday the 11th of April from 6-9pm and the art show will continue through the end of the month. There will also be original works, prints, and merchandise from both artists in store for sale during the time of the convention.

Woodring

Linework NW's goal is to focus attention on the creators who work in a variety of creative mediums that share so much in common. The primary location for the fest will be held at Norse Hall (NE 11th and Couch) on the Saturday of April the 12th and it is completely free and open to the public.

She Shreds and Tom Tom: Musical Inspiration and a Whole 'Lotta Bad Ass Women!



If you know any musical ladies, or if you are looking for inspiration yourself, your search for the perfect magazines has come to an epic conclusion! She Shreds and Tom Tom are the perfect companion for any mademoiselle who wields an axe, bass, or who can bang it out on a drum kit. Both of these publications feature interviews, record reviews, cool articles about lady musicians and sheet music to follow. Even for those of us who are not musically gifted, like yours truly, these issues make for fantastic reads. Moreover, the photography contained within each is stunning and powerful

We are carrying the most recent issues of each (as well as the third back issue of She Shreds) so, come on down and get it!
