Culture Issue<\/strong><\/p>\n

We\u2019re now accepting pitches for our annual Culture Issue! This year\u2019s theme is the arts industry in Canada. We\u2019d like to cover what\u2019s going well, what\u2019s not going so well, and how we\u2019re funding our endeavours in these tough times. While we\u2019re not looking for many profiles of artists themselves, we are interested in highlighting work artists are engaging in to keep their fields alive and promote innovation right now. We\u2019re really interested in telling stories that are happening across Canada, from the east to the west to the North. Keeping the arts healthy in small towns is as important, and sometimes more so, as what happens in big city scenes. Please pitch us about whatever you\u2019ve noticed that\u2019s weird and wonderful in your local arts scenes, updates on your long-favourite festivals and bands, supports you\u2019d like to see for artists \u2014 we\u2019re into it all.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re seeking news, arts and ideas stories, and features. This includes our back page open letter and memoir and opinion columns. We publish Canadian residents only and accept queries (not completed manuscripts). We suggest familiarizing yourself with the magazine and previously published stories before pitching. For more details on the kinds of pieces we run, see below.<\/p>\n

We like stories that aren\u2019t likely to be found anywhere else, ideally with a social justice tie-in. In your pitch, it\u2019s always great to say why you want to tell this story now, why you\u2019re the one to tell it, sources you plan to consult, and any takeaways your piece will include for the reader. In other words, what might people learn, or start to learn, from reading your story?<\/p>\n

Pitches are due Thursday, July 4, 2024 and can be sent to Sarah Ratchford,\u00a0editor@thismagazine.ca.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Thank you for pitching\u00a0This Magazine<\/em>! We can\u2019t wait to read your ideas.<\/p>\n

Writers\u2019<\/strong>\u00a0Guidelines<\/strong><\/p>\n

This Magazine<\/em>\u00a0welcomes queries only, not already written pieces. A good\u00a0This Magazine<\/em>\u00a0article offers background and context to ongoing national issues, a challenge to the mainstream media perspective, or an important story that hasn\u2019t been told elsewhere. Subject matter includes politics, culture, the arts, social issues, labour, feminism, mental health, race\/racism, Indigenous issues, and sexuality, with a focus on quality writing and in-depth reportage.\u00a0Please note:\u00a0This Magazine<\/em>\u00a0publishes Canadian residents only<\/strong><\/p>\n

Before you submit anything to the magazine, be sure you are familiar with its approach. Pay particular attention to writing style and content. Articles for\u00a0This Magazine<\/em>\u00a0should have a journalistic approach, and be written in language simple enough to be comprehensible to a high school student, with enough research and insight to be interesting to a PhD. Assume that you\u2019re talking to knowledgeable readers (because you are). We encourage writers to grapple with big ideas, but they must be conveyed with wit and style, avoiding artistic, journalistic, legal, or academic jargon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
