We want to wish the women (and men) at Shameless magazine a happy second birthday. Over the last two years the mag has been nominated for two awards by the UTNE reader and even voted the best magazine by Now magazine. They’ve gotten mixed tapes from Emily Haines, doled out advice, interviewed some of the best female comic book artists, and taught girls that mainstream culture’s ideals of beauty aren’t the be all and end all. They also throw really fun parties.
To celebrate the magazine’s second anniversary, Shameless will be throwing a party at the Gibsone Jessop Gallery (55 Mill St., Bldg. 4, Distillery District) Friday night, 7:30-11:00pm, $5 including a magazine.
