Only one week to go until the Sliced Bread Launch Party! We just have a few announcements to make regarding the launch party -
1. The event venue has been relocated to the McCormick Tribune Lounge on the first floor of the Reynolds Club.
2. The menu for the food from Cedars is as follows: Hummus, Falafels, and Pineapple Hareesas (like a pineapple cheesecake, but even better!).
3. The launch party will serve as a background for a professional music video for Soap & Skin, which means there will be a film crew on site.
4. The winners of our contest will be announced after the first act.
Once again, the launch party is on Friday, May 25th from 7PM to 10PM in the McCormick Tribune Lounge ( not Hallowed Grounds!) which is on the first floor of the Reynolds Club opposite of Hutch Commons!
SEE YOU ALL THERE!

Who We Are
- The Grainheads
- Chicago, Illinois, United States
- Sliced Bread, a publication at The University of Chicago, is a magazine devoted to bringing together the odds and ends of our frenetic world, the things that make us laugh, cry, and ponder our meandering existence as a species. Therefore, we publish not only short and long fiction, poetry, and prose, but also more non-traditional genres in literary magazines, like creative non-fiction, cultural commentary and opinions, travel writing, photography, and all forms of artistic renditions. Our mission is to provide a slice of everything, because after all, life is everything and everything is life. Sliced Bread is, in all reality, the oldest and the newest literary magazine at the University of Chicago. It is a complete remake in every sense of the word "total" of the literary magazine Aubade, which was founded in 1991. Therefore, during the summer of 2006, Katie, Nathan, and Kavita began putting together what is now Sliced Bread. We believe that literary magazines should not be only literary; it should encompass every aspect of life that inspires us to do what we do. Genres should also receive equal respect and not fight each other for attention.
