Hi YouthGas,
I am currently a subcriber to YouthGas and was hoping to get an email send out through the system. Mysel;f and others a currently developing a social justice Zine called Culturalista and are looking for people to make contributions for content. The Zine is funded by JBSeed and supported by Oxfam Australia and aims to explore issues of social justice and engage young people in issues affecting them and how they can become involved in creating change.
If the below message could be sent out that would be fantastic.
Subject: Culturalista Wants You!
Message:
Culturalista Wants You!
Love a bit of culture? Passionate about social justice issues? Feel like being a bit creative, getting published and winning prizes for doing it?
We are looking for writers, artists, designers (and anyone with a bit of creative flair really!) to contribute to Australias newest up-and-coming Zine.
Culturalista is a quarterly publication that aims to showcase just how much of a diverse culture we have in our own backyard. But this isnt just any boring, mainstream magazine- Culturalista will feature alternative music and movie reviews, inspiring personal stories, scrumptious recipes, photos, artwork and designs from up and coming artists, feature articles, crosswords, cartoons- pretty much anything you feel inspired to contribute!
Each issue will have a broad theme, which content will be loosely centred around, but apart from that, what you contribute is left up to your own creativity. The theme for the first issue is Movement. Submissions are open to everyone and prizes will be awarded for originality and the most creative entries. So get on board, get published and be part of a new social movement that celebrates Australias diverse culture!
Submissions must be received by the 8th of October for the first issue, while later submissions may be published in the 2nd issue arriving in February next year. Prizes will be awarded for originality and creativity, while creators of all published works will be notified.
All contributions and any questions can be made via email to dustinb@oxfam.org.au (preferably) or via post to Culturalista, 90 Helen St, Northcote, Vic. 3070 or phone queries to 0428385272. Please attach name and contact details with all entries.
**By submitting any piece contributors are consenting to the reproduction of their work in Culturalista. All credit will be given to the original creator, however if you wish to remain anonymous please indicate this with submission. Personal details will be kept private**
Culturalista is a not for profit publication exploring issues of social justice through the arts. Proudly supported by Oxfam Australia and funded by the JBSeed Arts Fund.
