Garden & Gun magazine (no, we’re not making that up) has chosen Memphis as its “City Portrait” for the Fall 2007 issue, set for newsstands August 28th.
According to a press release, the magazine’s third issue, called The “Mighty Mississippi”, will “highlight Memphis’ famous music, world-class barbeque, and renowned entertainment venues. In addition, the magazine will delve deeper into the culture and history of Memphis, and will take a look at its place in the South today.”
“Memphis represents the Mighty Mississippi region in its history and also in its plans for the future,” said Rebecca Darwin, publisher. “The city is known as a cultural keystone not only throughout the South, but around the world. It’s more than just blues and barbeque — and I think this issue will really illustrate that.”
Memphis is the third city to be highlighted in the new magazine’s “City Portrait.” Asheville, North Carolina, was featured in its premiere issue, and Mobile, Alabama, was featured in its Summer issue.
