Jupiter Magazine Launches with Dinner and Dancing in Brooklyn

Publishing behemoths may be at a tipping point, but last week, Jupiter, a new independent arts and culture magazine, burst onto New York City’s literary scene. Its founders and co-editors, Camille Gallogly Bacon and Daria Simone Harper shared with guests their bold vision for a publication that rights industry wrongs of low pay and unsustainable output while shifting the art world’s publishing paradigms. Friends, family, and writers for Jupiter’s debut issue joined the founding editors for dinner at Lula Mae, a staple for Cambodian fare in Clinton Hill, followed by a dance party DJ’d by Amarie Gipson. Notables in attendance included Kennedy Yanko, Jenna Wortham, Diallo Simon-Ponte, Turiya Adkins, and Rianna Jade Parker. Photo credit: Bre Johnson/BFA.
