Circ

About

 

circ is an independent platform and noticeboard for contemporary art, formal and informal writing, creative opportunities, and dating in print.

 

For each issue, we invite the creative public to submit documentation of fine art, thoughts, essays, stories, recipes, or text of any format and tone responding to the theme of the upcoming issue. Themes emerge via thematic analysis of previous contributions, creating ongoing dialogues between contributors, readers, and issues themselves. We believe this slower form of public discourse is important to preserve in an age shaped by rapid digital interaction.
