Rivendell is a literary arts journal that recognizes and cherishes the places out of which art and literature are made and enjoyed: geographic locations, communities, shared sensibilities. In each issue we gather together poetry, fiction, creative nonfiction, original artwork, dispatches, and criticism from, about, and inspired by a particular place.
