Thank you for your interest in contributing a creative piece to bōcha issue #6, which will be published on the winter solstice.
The deadline to submit this form is Sunday, October 11. You will be notified whether your proposal has been accepted 3-5 days after this deadline. If accepted, a first draft of your contribution will be due October 28; final drafts are due November 4. More on that below!
Proposals will be evaluated by various criteria: its artistic force, its relevance to this seasonal cycle, its alignment with our values, etc. Local and historically marginalized voices will be prioritized, as will submissions that are place-based specific to Tea Stand programming. That said, as a community publication, we welcome proposals of all kinds :)
If in NYC, please specify which neighborhood.
We suggest writing 50-100 words to introduce your submission proposal. If you have a mockup to share (below), feel free to write less here.
NOT REQUIRED... BUT STRONGLY SUGGESTED :)
Our publication timeline is quite tight; late submissions make things harder for our printer (Sara), editors (ziggy and Miles), and all the other amazing folks contributing their energy to this project. Thanks for respecting that.
