55th Edition of Aquarian: JU's Literary and Arts Magazine

This edition's theme is The Life Cycle. You're welcome to submit works that you feel capture a small part of this theme, the theme as a whole, or a piece that you think is somehow related. The theme is not meant to be a bound but a guideline. Be creative! 

Aquarian is opening submissions to current students. We will accept up to 10 submissions per submitter and we ask you to submit them individually. Each piece asks for an artist biography as well as a description/explanation of the piece. This is especially important for visual pieces as they will be used for accessibility purposes. 

Deadline to submit is December 6th.

To submit, please find your desired category below and follow the instructions provided.

If you have questions please email jcrane@jacksonville.edu or aquarian@jacksonville.edu
