Celebrate 15 Years of Electric Literature at the Masquerade!
Electric Literature and hosts Emma Copley Eisenberg, Vanessa Chan, Deesha Philyaw, Clare Sestanovich, and Mateo Askaripour invite you to the Masquerade on October 18, 2024 in Brooklyn, NY. This year we’re celebrating Electric Literature’s 15th birthday, which makes us about as old as Poe would have been in literary magazine years. Join our esteemed hosts, as well as EL editors and authors, for an evening of drinks and dancing in support of Electric Literature.
The Masquerade of the Red NEON Death

To celebrate, we’re going electric! This year, the dress code is black and/or neon. Think bright colors, day glow, and pop art. Feeling introverted? Show up in black jeans and a black t-shirt and you’ll fit right in. Feeling extroverted and wondering how hard you can go? There is no limit. Need proof? Check out last year’s photos by Jasmina Tomic, and revel in the photo booth antics.
Masks and neon accessories will be provided, or you can bring your own. Come ready to dance because the tunes by DJ Sean Davis will light you up!
