  • Titles, medium, and year for each piece.
  • Your contact info -- name and email required; pronouns, location, and website optional.
  • An optional creator statement -- 50-75 words about your process or piece, if you'd like to share.
  • Original, unpublished work only. No AI-generated content.

For full details on what we accept, file formats, rights, and how pieces are selected, see our submission guidelines.
