Welcome to the 7th Issue of The Prairie Review!

 

The August issue features watercolors by a Polish artist Daniel Norbert Jankowski, new poetry and prose by writers associated with the Chicago Poetry Meetup as well as translation work and short criticisms. I hope that the selections featured in The Prairie Review will inspire you to make (more) art and perhaps to contribute your own work to the magazine.

 

From the start, The Prairie Review was meant to be a safe space for creative experiments of a community of budding / blooming writers and artists. We publish our artistic work here to make more space for art in our lives and to leave a creative mark in / on our world. We are indeed here, we are choosing to have art be the prism through which we experience ourselves, our culture, our time.

 

If you would like to send poetry, creative writing, visual art, or offer other talents to The Prairie Review, please contact me. All submissions to the magazine will be considered with attention.

 

The Prairie Review continues to evolve—on occasion, even against the odds. And I hope you and your art do too!
