As we head into autumn, we’re fondly looking back on the summer launch of our “Spring” issue!
Exposition Review Vol. X raises hope. For relief from grief. In the resilience of both nature and urban communities. With the sight of a Nike sneaker floating in on the Pacific tide. The stories and art and experiments on these pages dig deep into the human experience, and as you delve into them too, you’ll find hope blooms on the other side.
After months of sowing seeds, nurturing sprouts, and harvesting final pieces, we gathered at one of our favorite local bookstores, Village Well Books & Coffee in Culver City, California, to celebrate “Spring.”
Launch Party & Reading
“Spring” sprung on Saturday, June 21, when Exposition Review hosted our most visual launch reading yet, with several contributors from our visual art, comics, and film sections on hand to present their work—as well as writers from our poetry and nonfiction sections.
With intros by our section editors, the audience got a sample of our multi-genre fare—as well as snacks and sangria from Village Well! And for members of the Expo Fam who couldn’t attend, we streamed the event on Instagram Live. Afterward, Expo’s editors, contributors, and community mixed and mingled among the bookshelves.
Thank you to Village Well for once again welcoming us into your space, and to our contributors, editors, friends, and family who celebrated “Spring” with us!
