Help Keep Print Alive


Plazm magazine, bringing arts and culture to you in a beautiful, large format, gorgeously printed, internationally distributed magazine for 20 years, could use a little help with printing issue #30. Issue #30 will feature art by David Lynch and Raymond Pettibon, interviews with Corin Tucker (Sleater-Kinney) and Bruce Sterling, fiction and poetry, photography and graphic design, and much, much more.

It's ready to go to press. We just need to match our RACC grant to pay the printer.

As much as it sucks to have to fundraise, we think it's worth it, because we don't think a $1.99 download can do justice to the images and artworks featured in this magazine, nor would the the feeling of holding the magazine in your hands, having it on your coffee table or in amongst your vinyl collection compare to reading it on your iPad.

Our Kickstarter project is getting close to the halfway mark, both in dollars pledged and duration of the campaign. We are really excited about this issue, and we hope enough of you are too!
