  • Editorial pieces are writings that speak to art that cannot typically be translated directly onto a page. This includes film, music, dance, performance art, comedy etc.

    For editorial features, we are looking for…

  • Fully formed pitches that fulfill the following requirements:

    • A description of the local artist they intend to write a profile on.

    • How that artist is in conversation with a larger theme, scene and/or idea.

    • A critical analysis of that theme, scene and/or idea and how it relates to the world as a whole. 

    • An anticipated word count of 1,000 to 5,000.

    • Links to at least one recent writing sample by the writer(s) of the peice (features/non-fiction preferred, but any form of writing will be considered).

    • Examples of recent work (links to videos, photographs, or whatever best show the work that the piece will highlight).

    • Short bio for each artist involved.

    • Relevant social media handles.

    • Please note: we will be accepting creative collaborations across all mediums. If you are interested in writing a piece about a more obscure art form, we highly recommend following that inspiration.

    • If you are an artist submitting yourself please include as much information as possible if selected we will match you with a writer for an editorial piece.

      What we are asking for is cultural criticism and dialogue; think of this as your opportunity to creatively flex!
