Blog & News
Welcome to the Panel Blog!
Our region is an exciting one, there is so much happening from books to read and creative people bursting with stories to tell, but sadly there are not enough pages in the print magazine to recount them all. This is why we’ve decided to launch the Panel Blog, so we can help you delve into the literary and artistic world of Central and Eastern Europe.
From book recommendations and cultural city profiles to interviews and conversations with independent publishers and writers, we’re hoping this blog offers a parallel platform to meet our mission: To highlight the creativity and talent our region has to offer.
We plan to post every two to three weeks, so if you’d like to follow us and keep up-to-date, then join us on our social media channels to stay in touch.
On this page we also list events of Panel's life, as well as upcoming events in literature and the arts set to take place in Central Eastern Europe. If you to alert us to an upcoming event of this kind, please send an email to panel.editors@gmail.com
