Looking Back – Rift Magazine Issue #6

This issue has some historical significance, because Emily Utne who designed the cover and did layout for us for many of our print issues is now the art director of City Pages and did her first cover for them last week. She always did an awesome job, and all of the issues she did for us looked great.
