THE CARNIVAL

Luna Park is a non-profit company with a staff of two, along with the grateful help of volunteers, editors, and writers. Please consider helping Luna Park either financially in the form of a donation or as part of our staff.

DONATIONS

Donations can be sent to our mailing address: Luna Park, 313 Elizabeth Ave., Hattiesburg, MS 39401. As we are a new company, Luna Park has not yet been able to receive 401-C3 non-profit status. Still, any donations will go fully to the running of Luna Park, paying writers, bringing attention to the art being produced in literary magazines, and unearthing the important literary history of this publishing form.

JOBS

Luna Park is currently looking for assistant editors. Please send resumes and cover letters to our editors by email or to our mailing address (both of which can be found here). We are also interested in working with web designers and graphic artists.
