The premier issue of A&P鈥攐ur new art and performance quarterly鈥攊s out on the stands as of right now, inside this week's Stranger, and it is awesome*. (It's also online, but you should see how pretty it looks on paper!) It's got:

路 fiction involving balloon animals by Sherman Alexie
路 opera columnist Rebecca Brown on Madame Butterfly and sex tourism
路 a history of feminist art (with lots about ladyparts) by Jen Graves
路 a very special centerfold by (not of) Matthew Stadler
路 a review of Le Gourmand (it is closing and you should go spend a bunch of money there!) by yours truly
McCoy Tyner interviewed by Charles Mudede

...and much, MUCH more, including three-month-spanning, detailed and comprehensive calendars of events for art, performance, classical music, jazz, literature, and film.

Here it is online in case you're not near a Stranger box. Enjoy!
