About the magazine

Epiphany is a literary and arts journal founded in 2008 by a group of writers and artists in New York City. Its founding ethos was to provide a space for work that bridges the literary and visual arts, emphasizing the interplay between text and image. The journal publishes two issues per year, featuring fiction, poetry, essays, and visual art that often explore themes of identity, place, and the human condition. Over time, Epiphany has maintained a commitment to showcasing emerging and underrepresented voices alongside established artists, fostering a community that values experimentation and emotional resonance.

Editorial focus

Epiphany Magazine is a semiannual print and online literary journal and an independent nonprofit 501(c)(3) that supports practicing writers at every stage of their careers. It publishes two print magazines a year and publishes essays, fiction, and poetry online on a rolling basis. With its Breakout contest and Fresh Voices Fellowship, it honors both student writers and writers of color who exist outside the literary establishment. For over 20 years, it has championed work that transcends convention and demonstrates literary mastery.
