Issue 6 Call for Submissions

For its sixth issue, ¡Pa'lante! seeks poetry, short fiction, creative nonfiction, and artwork from California writers and artists (i.e. writers and artists who currently live or have lived in California). Our mission is to engage and promote underrepresented voices in the literary landscape, so we encourage writers and artists from all communities and identities to submit. 

While we are open to submissions from all over the world, ¡Pa'lante! especially welcomes the poetry, short fiction, creative nonfiction, and artwork of Cerritos College students and alumni. Cerritos College faculty are not eligible to submit.

Poetry, short fiction, and creative nonfiction submissions are open until December 6, 2024.

Art and high school submissions are open until February 1, 2025.
