Pushing Out the Boat: Issue 7

Pushing Out the Boat is the North-East of Scotland's prestigious magazine of new writing and the visual arts. A reviewer in Northwords Now wrote of last year's issue: "...it's impossible to mention every piece that catches the eye, the ear, and the heart..."

At the launch, the contributing writers, artists and production team will meet to celebrate the new issue. Writers will read extracts from their work and the magazine will be available for sale. Members of the public are also cordially invited, admission subject to space constraints. The doors will be closed at 7.30pm so as not to disturb the readings.
