looking for more updates and stories.
When does the newest issues come out?
Very soon, Benjamin! Without going out on a limb to make any promises, we can say it could be ready for release by the end of May.
You did not mention length requirements. Are we talking flash fiction (500 wds or less) or novellas ( 15,000 wds or more)
Good question, Gary. So far we’ve been publishing short works (500-2,000 words) pieces of fiction and non-fiction. In the upcoming issue we will feature some longer works (3,000 words).
Feel free to send anything though. We are interested in publishing some work to the AV Arts Blog, which offers an opportunity to get creative with length.
We like what you are doing with the AV Anthology! Looking forward to seeing this year’s new volume in the fall. (We’d love to help spread the word about the Anthology release if you let us know ahead of time.)
Where can this magazine be picked up?
New issues will be available at Sagebrush Cafe in Quartz Hill and through artist AJ Currado. – –

Who do I need to contact about a guy that was featured in the arts magazine around 2004-2008, his name is Ralph Maxwell and he painted oil on canvas. Lives in Antelope Valley
Hello Rive and thanks for sending in the question.
There must be a mistake though – no one by that name appeared in our publication. The painters featured were: Cass Douglas, Michael Jones, Edwin Vasquez, Nicolas Shake, Tom Varden and Frank Dixon. Is there a chance that you were thinking of one of these artists?
