Folio accepts submissions of poetry, fiction, non-fiction, photography, and visual art year-round, and publishes annually in the Spring. We accept submissions via Submittable. Our next issue, forthcoming in April 2023, will highlight AAPI and women’s voices, in light of recent political developments in the United States.
If to create art is to engage in the act of discovery, then emerging artists’ findings—your observations, epiphanies, critiques, your passions & desires—are a constellation, each voice flickering on & illuminating something anew. Folio endeavors to be your sky, dear lights, your blank page, your expectant lens, your canvas or darkroom. Send us your nascent stars, dear Readers; we cannot wait to bask in their glow.
