happy post thanksgiving messy magazine readers!
now that you're stuffed with all sorts of deliciousness, when would be a better time to give you a lovely reminder that submissions for NO THEME Issue 6 are due in 1 WEEK!! december 4th to be exact. time really does fly when the holidays are upon us.
like we said before, we think you've jumped through enough of our hoops this year and now we want to see what kind of stuff you can bring to the table without a prompt. we also want you to take a look back at your own year in review and tell us about it. What was your favorite album? what was your new obsession? best night out? favorite new restaurant? concert? movie? festival? theater performance? shall we keep going? what did you do in 2009? tell us!
or, just send us something dear to you- something expressive and uniquely yours that you want to share. It's like an end of the year potluck- bring your own side dish and we'll provide the space and distribution!
we also encourage you to look through out past issues and select some of your favorite pieces. Let us know what you liked and we'll highlight some of our readers' favorites. We will be sharing our ultimate faves and we can all sit back and marvel at what we've made together in 2009.
Submissions will be due December 4th
and look for Issue 6 before the end of the year.
new folks- be sure to check the site for submission info- everyone else should know the drill!
email us if you have questions.

MADE IN THE 216 HOLIDAY SHOPPE November 6-29
The next iteration of the MADE IN THE 216 will be a (near) month long HOLIDAY SHOPPE held in the
GORDON SQUARE ARTS DISTRICT.
We will be activating the empty storefront directly to the right of the entrance to the Capitol Theater and filling it with amazing goods MADE RIGHT HERE IN THE 216, including 15 new designers bringing the total of designers to nearly 50!
The Holiday Shoppe, which will be open daily from 5-9pm (later nights on Fridays) will be kicked off on Friday November 6 with a party featuring beer and (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) specialty HOT CHOCOLATE and CIDER created by RYAN SANTOS and music provided by DJ Doc. The party and shopping will be open until 10pm with an after party featuring Cleveland bands, The Buried Wires and Filmstrip to be held directly after at THE HAPPY DOG located at W.58th and Detroit Ave. Each Friday of the shoppe, we will host several Cleveland bands to play in basement shows in the Shoppe space....BYOB is welcome for these weekly celebrations!

Bazaar Bizarre began in 2001 in Boston as a hodge-podge of friends and acquaintances cobbling together their handcrafted DIY wares to sell while staging an offbeat entertainment extravaganza. In 2004 the Bazaar Bizarre spread to Los Angeles and Cleveland, and in 2006 Make magazine began to include Bazaar Bizarre as part of the Maker Faire in San Francisco and Austin. Bazaar Bizarre's main shows take place every year during peak holiday shopping season in December and attract thousands of shoppers as well as positive media attention.
