    This is the fun, creative part!
Q: When does Tapestry get published?

-- The magazine is completed in late April to early May and is distributed in Office 101. We encourage everyone that wants to contribute to see editorial policy on the content printed in the magazine. Tapestry staff has made this policy to act in a way of a simple guideline when selecting works to be included in the magazine. We, as the publishers and creators of Tapestry see our job as taking the most creative and outstanding work submitted by the students of Conant and presenting that to our whole community.
