Summer 2022: Lemonade
With Lemonade, we hope to draw on the sentimentality and contrasting flavors associated with this quintessential summer drink. This issue unites stories which ask us to consider the relationship between sweet and sour, hardship and happiness, through a series of distinct and unique perspectives. Through this lens, we can reminisce on past experiences while also looking to future opportunities. In this issue of Open Ceilings, each piece represents a dichotomy of emotion and experience. In “Salt and Pitch” we confront the stagnancy of a fishing town with wondrous mermaids, while in “Alabama” we reconcile difficult histories with the importance of solidarity and community. We implore you to consider the complexities of friendship and love in “The Less We Say About It The Better,” to examine visual art of patchwork faces and family dynamics, and to confront your own relationship with color after reading “Oh, To Be a Brown Crayon.”
