Dude is nasty with a chainsaw

Seven Days has a cool feature on Barre Pinske/Pinsky (they spell it two ways) and his chainsaw over in Chester Vermont.

I’ve always found chainsaw art to be one of the ultimate ironic statements. Using such a destructive, obnoxious tool to craft such original, creative art isn’t something you see everyday.

New Issue

The new issue is up and we are partying tonight at Halvorson’s on Church St. from 8PM to Midnight. EVERYBODY COME.

Check out the new issue at www.phoebemag.com

Launch Party 2.0

We will be hosting our annual launch party this upcoming Tuesday, May 5th, at Halvorson’s at 16 Church St. from 8PM to 12AM. There will be live music and booze. What more could you ask for?

by the way, if anyone still checks this blog, WE ARE DOIN IT AGAIN! Look out for a new mag and a party sometime early next week.

Be sure to come, it’ll be a rager fer shure.

Now … Hiring?

We had an overwhelming response to the on-line release of the first issue and now we are gearing up and thinking about what comes next. We are hoping to continue in the same fashion, this time in a full print release.

This means we need help. Since we are just a bunch of twenty-somethings (albeit hip, quirky, motivated, and talented) We are looking for people who are interested in writing, editing, maintaining the blog, taking photos, walking the dog, drawing pictures, etc.

We cannot offer any compensation, just the opportunity to get in at the ground level of a blossoming new publication and shape the face of what your community reads and sees.

We are also partially submission based. If anyone has any written pieces, photography, drawings or whatever we would love to incorporate them into the publication. We will consider anything that is sent our way.

Inquiries and submissions can be sent to phoebe.magazine@gmail.com

We hope to hear from you!

Inner Fire District

Its Yiddish. Its Radical. Its Balkan Folk. Its the Inner Fire District

This quartet of accordion, bass, clarinet, piano and vocals has been carving a serious niche for themselves on the Burlington sound scene.

Listen to “Sophia’s Waltz”

Thanks, Phoebe!

Hi!

So, a while ago my friend brought me a poster with “phoebe” all over it (that being my name) and I thought it was nice, good graphic design and what not, but I had no idea what it was for. Then I saw the launch party poster over at Muddy’s. Then finally the mystery unraveled when my friend sent me the link for the magazine. I am thrilled to share my name with this magazine. Seven Days does its share for the arts community but this is so great. I’m headed down to brooklyn for art school in the fall and I was thinking how Burlington deserves to have its arts community as well publicized.I can’t get over this…it’s so much I love about VT art in 58 pages. If I could be a magazine, I would be this one.

Thanks Phoebe! We’re glad you lent us your name. I hope we can continue to be the magazine you wish to be.
