Free Zine: North of the Charles Revue

[North of the Charles Revue]

The first issue of the North of the Charles Revue is out now. 

The NCR is made in Somerville, MA with contributors from near and far, all of whom share a love for New England, Greater Boston, and the communities North of the Charles River, especially Somerville and Cambridge. It is 18 pages of community written essays, stories, and more. There's even a crossword! Find our instagram at @ ncrzine.

The best way to get your hands on this bastard is by dropping into some of our favorite local haunts. There are currently over 100 copies sitting in bookshelves and on tables across the neighborhood. Most are in cafes, many are in bars, and a few are in shops: all free to grab. A handful are even in my local butcher shop. To find free copies north of the Charles, check out the list and map below. There are no digital copies.

Don’t fret, we can also mail a copy to you… but I am gonna ask for $3. Sorry. Turns out, it’s like $100 to print every issue. I’d love to lighten that burden so we can make more of these, therefore I gotta find some way to get $ back into the workflow.
