Remember when Wednesdays meant there was a fresh alt-weekly newspaper in the newspaper box on the corner?
In it you found faces you recognized — of your friends and maybe even yourself. Mirror Indy’s new arts and culture newsletter is an ode to that magic, which is why it will hit your mailbox every Wednesday at noon. You can read or listen to it!

A feast for your eyes
Dearest PlayListers,
As the final days of 2025 slip through our sugar-coated fingers, many of us are looking back — perhaps a bit astounded by all that we’ve lived through. A lot of life can happen in 365 days.
And all that life is easy to lose track of when you’re doing the same things. Eating at the same places. Sitting on the same couch, gazing at the same screens. Not that there’s anything wrong with a routine, but much of the value arts and culture brings to our lives is distinguishing one day from another.
The same can be said about a news article. The visual parts of a story are often what catch our attention. They have a way of sticking with us far longer, too.
So, in the spirit of reflection, the Mirror Indy team has pulled together a collection of our favorite photos and original artwork from 2025. We hope you enjoy them!
In this episode:
- Our Lady of Guadalupe sights and sound
- Kitchen of Culture on the south side
- Four local game designers to know
- Listen: "O Holy Night" a cappella
- How to celebrate Kwanzaa
- The Christmas House
- Your New Year "sound oracle"
