General Submission Guidelines

After the shared experience of being isolated, we aspire to grow our relationships with others and evolve in a renaissance of expression to create a universal connection.

Statement Magazine’s Spring 2023 issue was inspired by the connections we were able to make despite the hardships we all faced during the worst part of the pandemic, and we have adopted Connection as our central theme.

It is this magazine's mission to inspire its readers to diversify and deepen their relationships through literature and art.
