Open call for submissions

We are so very excited to announce the themes for the 2025 Issues and submission deadlines.
Whether you consider yourself an artist or not, this space is for YOU. As long as your submission is written word, visual art, or media, we encourage you to send it.

The Family Issue

March 8

This issue explores how our families influence who we become. The values, traditions, and dynamics that shape us, and how we, in turn, make intentional choices to shape our own families, whether by honoring, redefining, or breaking away from those influences.

The Period Issue

June 7

This theme delves into menstruation as a broad and multifaceted experience, NOT exclusive to CIS women. It highlights period poverty and justice, period care, as well as ancestral and growing knowledge surrounding periods.

The Death Issue

September 6

This theme explores the many sides of grief, looking at the traditions and rituals around death and loss and how we navigate them.

The Manifestation Issue

December 6

This theme delves into the revolutionary power of imagination—how it empowers us to envision and build the futures we dream of for ourselves and for the future of humanity.

Pan(*)cha Zine seeks to elevate the voices of womxn, femme, and non-binary creatives of the global majority who are looking for a space for self-expression.   

Why?

We are tired of trying to fit in boxes too small to contain us. We are too colorful to try to paint ourselves under the same tones.

We want you to join us in exploring our identities, not to define them, but to fall in love with their diversity and expansiveness.
