Submissions - OPEN BOOK COLLECTIVE

OPEN BOOK COLLECTIVE

Submission are now closed, but feel free to look at our past themes! See our "publication" tab for our most recent issues.

In the 2022-2023 academic year, our theme was 'transparency'. While our editorial team was inspired by Jennifer Morton's argument that first-gen college students deserve a "clear-eyed narrative," about upward mobility when we selected this year's theme, we encouraged artists and writers to submit work that evokes an interpretation of "Transparency" and any related subject matter. Your painting, poem, or film doesn't have to be about being a first-gen college student, but it can be!
