Here on Amaranths website, you can find everything you need to know about events, submissions, questions, and more.

We are hoping Amaranths 51st Volume will be something new and exciting. With expressive imagery, thought provoking topics, and art pieces bursting with color. Amaranth wants to encapsulate the idea of the coming season of spring. Looking for intentional and dynamic works of art that understand the importance of growth and renewal that comes from decay. So, don’t forget to submit!

Our submission period is open; it will close on March 4th at 11:59pm.

If you’re interested in preforming and open-mic nights or if you want to meet a variety of writers, you can find our Coffeehouse schedule and Writers Reading dates in News and Events.

If you want to ask questions, submit suggestions, or to find out more about the journal, please use the Contact page.
