magCulture Live 2021
The Annual Magazine Conference Returns—In Real Life!
After a year on hiatus, (physically at least — magCulture Live 2020 was held over Zoom à la lockdown) magCulture Live is back on Thursday, November 4th, 2021, in London. And for the first time, there are live streaming tickets available if you’re not able to make it to London.
Created around the mantra, “we love magazines!” the all-day event will champion great magazine work across art direction, editorial design, photography, illustration, and typography. The day will also be a celebration—at last, an opportunity to come together again and celebrate the creativity at the heart of magazine culture!
“From eighties innovator Terry Jones (i-D) and creative director Alex Breuer (The Guardian) to today’s big indie successes (Kinfolk, MacGuffin) and the latest generation of new magazines, we’ll hear what powers the evergreen desire to create, publish, sell, and read printed magazines,” added magCulture founder, Jeremy Leslie.
