Get out! You and those dearest to you have no choice but to attend. Buy as many tickets as possible NOW NOW NOW via austinpsychfest.com
Here’s the latest poster with the full line-up…
Some of the items still available at the store…
Because so many people have been asking for some clarification as to Arthur’s future:
There are no further issues of Arthur planned at this time. We’re happy we got to do the three issues we did in 2013, while being able to pay our contributors for the first time ever and fulfill all those old outstanding subscriptions.
The online mail-order Arthur Store will be open until March 2, 2014. At that point, all unsold backstock will be chucked on the compost heap or into the recycle bin. Everything has been discounted. A number of items are now sold out and have been removed from the Store. Go here to grab stuff for cheep: arthur.bigcartel.com
This website, as well as the Arthur Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr pages/feeds, will stop being updated on March 3, 2014.
For many reasons, it’s now time for Arthur to go dormant. Perhaps the mag will sprout again in the future, perhaps not. In any event, we hope we’ve been of some use, and thank everyone who’s been so kind to us.
Thank you so kindly,
The Arthur Gang

Arthur store CLOSES for good on March 2, 2014 and everything left goes in the recycle bin or compost heap.
CDs have been discounted to $5 each, and prices for many back issues of the magazine have been cut as well.
