Art and literary journal Riverside Storybook to host release party Friday

Riverside Storybook is an art and literary journal created by teens, curated by teens and featuring work by teens.

In celebration of its fourth volume, Riverside Storybook is hosting a release party on Friday at Spark Central.

Vol. 4 features poetry, photography, visual art and prose by creators age 12-18.

Volumes 1 through 3 will also be available for sale, and light refreshments will be provided. Vol. 4 is $10, and the contributing artists will be at the release party.

“The main goal here is not profit,” the group behind the journal wrote on Facebook. “It is instead to encourage and make known teenage talent.”
