THEME: Fire
Coffee People Zine celebrates the creativity of the coffee community. We showcase the multi-dimensionality of folks who work in and around the coffee industry. Through our seasonal submission-based print zine, we publish art and articles, poetry and photography, music and musings, doodles and drawings, and other creative works by baristas, roasters, and other coffee professionals around the world.
Rules for Submission:
1. If you work in the coffee industry, your submission can be anything.
2. If you do not work in the coffee industry, your submission must be about coffee in some way.
*NOTE: We are heavily prioritizing submissions by people who work(ed) in the coffee industry.*
Open Submissions:
We are currently accepting submissions for Issue 21, our Summer 2023 release. The theme is FIRE - think heat in all its iterations and methods. Open flame, drum roasters, fluid beds. You could even think about the heat released during coffee processing, or the heat needed to boil water. What about the fire lit within you when you tasted your first delicious cup? You can do with that what you want - the more creative the better! Check our Instagram @coffeepeoplezine for timeline and updates.
*BIPOC/LGBTQ+/people with disabilities/folks with marginalized identities are highly encouraged to submit work.*
Submissions Due: June 8, 2023 (early submissions will be given primary consideration)
