Passages North, a literary magazine publishing original fiction, poetry, short-shorts, nonfiction, and hybrid pieces, opens a call for visual essays. The magazine produces one annual print issue alongside weekly online bonus content during the school year, providing contributors with two copies of their issue. While the publication does not offer monetary payment, it commits to treating work with care and promoting it through social media. This opportunity is situated within a broader editorial program that values hybrid and nonfiction forms, as indicated by its submission categories. The journal's reading periods for nonfiction and hybrid categories typically run from September 1 through April 15, though the stated deadline for this visual essay call is May 2, 2027. Submissions are accepted from all, and the magazine may close early if volume is high. The curatorial vision emphasizes original work that bridges visual and textual modes, aligning with the magazine's longstanding interest in hybrid pieces. Contributors can expect their work to appear in a respected literary context that prioritizes careful editorial attention over financial compensation. For visual essays, the magazine seeks work that integrates image and text in innovative ways, consistent with its nonfiction and hybrid guidelines. The absence of a fee and the provision of print copies reflect a commitment to accessibility and contributor support. Artists and writers working at the intersection of visual and literary practices are encouraged to consider this venue for its editorial rigor and reach within the literary community.
