Sea & Cedar Magazine

Are you a writer or artist living on Vancouver Island, Haida Gwaii, Bella Coola, or the Gulf Islands?

Vancouver Island Regional Library (VIRL) is currently seeking literature and art submissions for the Winter 2022 issue of our serial digital publication, Sea & Cedar Magazine.  We will accept submissions year-round, but will also make callouts and post deadlines for consideration in specific issues. The submission deadline to have your work considered for the next issue, Winter 2022, is October 31, 2021 (midnight). Visit our Submissions page for details.

Sea & Cedar Magazine is a biannual digital publication dedicated to showcasing exemplary new writing by both emerging and established writers in VIRL’s service area. We also seek to highlight the work of visual artists who are creating at all levels of experience in VIRL’s service area. Our goal is to provide a platform for a diverse range of voices to be heard, to support the many talented and innovative individuals creating literature and art in our communities, and to provide our readership with access to engaging and thought-provoking local content.

We welcome and encourage submissions from BIPOC writers and artists, writers and artists with disabilities, 2SLGBTQIA+ writers and artists, low-income earners, and writers and artists from other intersectional and under-represented communities.
