Now Hiring: Layout Staff

Okay, so we don’t have any money, so you’ll be overworked and underpaid. What else is new? In exchange for your time, you will receive unconditional greensburg love, free food, and occasional dumpstered goodies which could range from anything to, well, anything, really.

You do not need to have experience with layout via a computer (we’re using Scribus), but some layout experience, even of a personal nature (i.e. zines, scrapbooking, altered art), is preferred. Skills with blogs and computer graphic design a major plus.
Send a resume, samples of your work, and a self-portrait in your choice of medium to: greensburg magazine layout staff, P.O. Box 652, greensburg, PA 15601.

You must be able to meet in the Greensburg area at least once every other week during off-periods and at least three times per week in the two weeks before an issue is released. We are willing to work with your school in order to help you get credit for your work.

SF Anarchist Book Fair

In other news, greensburg editor, Moira Richardson, and advertising consultant, Joe McFadden, are planning a trip to San Francisco in March to attend the 12th annual Anarchist Book Fair.  If you’re in SF and would like to offer us a place to stay, or you would like to meet up before and during the event, let us know.  This event is free and open to the public.  We will be distributing copies of greensburg magazine as well as literature about the event.  If you have any literature you’d like us to hand out, drop us a line.

Salvaged Love – update

With our release date two weeks away, and our layout just over half-way finished, things are rather panicky here at greensburg headquarters. No worries, our first issue will be ready to go in no time and at your doorstep before you can recite the names of all the U.S. presidents, backwards.

We are tentatively planning a release party at the greensburg info shop on February 14th, in the evening. Two bands, so far, are scheduled to play, and you’ll be able to pick up your copy of the magazine when you stop by.

If you miss picking up one of the freebies, you can purchase your very own issue for less than the price of lunch. ($5 to greensburg magazine; P.O. Box 652, greensburg, PA 15601).

Two weeks after the launch of the print magazine, you will, with luck, be able to purchase a *.pdf copy for the same price, with one added advantage: you will be able to print, and distribute, greensburg magazine for yourself.
