Witness is a literary magazine whose stated mission is to amplify extraordinary voices, feature writers from every part of the globe, and highlight pieces that speak to the present moment in an enduring and distinctive way. The publication's cover art is not decorative but integral: it frames each issue's contents and signals the magazine's aesthetic and intellectual commitments to readers before a single line is read. This call seeks artists whose work can operate in that register—images that are evocative, communicative, and capable of holding their own alongside serious contemporary writing. The opportunity encompasses two distinct editorial contexts. The Fall 2026 issue is an online, unthemed publication, offering artists latitude to propose work on their own terms. The Spring 2027 issue is a print edition organized around the theme of Dreams, inviting submissions that engage dream states, the subconscious, or related imaginative terrain. Artists may submit up to six original high-resolution images for the editors' consideration, and all mediums are accepted—photography, painting, drawing and illustration, sculpture, graphic design, and beyond. There is no submission fee. Witness encourages prospective applicants to familiarize themselves with past issues, whether online or in print, and to look to previous themed cover art for context. The editors state that they are most interested in how an artist's work interprets and communicates an experience. This is a curatorial call in the truest sense: the magazine is not seeking generic illustration but images that carry meaning, that reward sustained attention, and that can stand as the visual entry point to a body of writing concerned with the present moment.
