Over a year ago I was totally inspired by 'The Cancer Hive' magazine - The magazine was all about seeking to change the conversations around cancer, make it less of a taboo, but also support people who are living with it. I tried to get them involved in another project but they said go ahead and create something yourself.....well just over a year on and we are launching our own version.....
Yes to Life, the charity I have been working with and the Glos-based Artlift charity have today launched a call out for artwork, photography, writing & more for the first edition of Flourish, a magazine by and for people living with or beyond cancer. We have a Creative Editor in place and are sending out news releases and lots of social media.
The first issue is on the theme of 'Nourish' and we are after works that explore the benefits of an integrative and creative approach. You can see more at: https://www.wigwam.org.uk/post/looking-for-creative-submissions-for-a-new-magazine-by-and-for-the-cancer-community
