Redesigned Boston Globe Magazine Debuts Sunday

In “Out and About,” photos from various events and nightlife around town will be featured, including reader-submitted photos. Readers can share their photos by emailing outandabout@globe.com. And “One-Liners” will showcase a local comedian’s joke or a witty Tweet or Facebook post from a well-known Bostonian.

Finally, the popular “Coupling” column is expanding under a new name: “Connections.” “Connections” will cover not only romantic relationships, but also friendships and family interactions.

The Magazine, now closer in size to a typical newsstand magazine, also features creative new advertising positions, including gatefolds – a foldout ad with more space for innovative design.

“This fresh and updated redesign of the Globe Magazine provides more opportunities for our advertisers to engage with readers, through new high-impact ad positions, more pages and more editorial content to capture their relevant audiences,” says Lisa DeSisto, chief advertising officer of the Boston Globe and general manager of Boston.com.

The new editorial features of the magazine are also available online at www.bostonglobe.com/magazine, along with additional available multimedia content including video and photo galleries.
