All students are invited to submit visual art and writing to En-Vision, a zine about slowing down, radical self-care and fostering networks of mutual support and caregiving. The deadline is April 20.
The En-Vision zine is seeking creative writing and visual art projects related to the themes of queerness and an ethic of slow care. Priority will be given to submissions related to chronic illness, disability and related critical approaches. We welcome creative, inspired and innovative projects that push the boundaries of this theme and foster a sense of community care and support.
Writing submissions may include poetry, flash fiction, creative nonfiction, personal essays and fictional stories.
Visual art submissions may include photography, illustration, art, collage, typography and mixed media.
