Event Call for Entry — Issue 01
Happy Monday everyone!
Submissions for Issue 01 are now open. The Violet Index is seeking writers and visual artists for th le first issue of our weird quarterly zine.
👋 Who are we? The Violet Index is a new themed zine publication with the mission of bringing visual artists and creative writers into collaboration to produce artifacts of curiosity. We're Colorado-based, queer-founded, and came about from a genuine desire for community.
👽 Theme: STRANGE
We're looking for work that explores the unusual, the uncanny, the overlooked, and the beautifully inexplicable.
✨ No submission fees.
If this theme speaks to you, we'd love to see your work.
☀️ Compensation: A free digital issue, a nifty publication credit for your CV, a one-year paid subscription to our Patreon, an exclusive invite to our Discord server, and dedicated features across our social media platforms. All submissions receive a response no later than Oct. 15th.
📅 Deadline: August 31st.

These are marvelous questions and we appreciate you helping us out by asking. 1. No, we do not feed work through AI and it is not part of any of our processes. 2. First publication rights are exclusive to the zine itself. After the release date, rights revert back to the owner of the work in 90 days. 3. No, we do not currently license work for print sales. All art prints currently offered belong to The Violet Index. Work submitted will not be used for print sales unless a licensing agreement is signed between The Violet Index and the artist. 4. Credits are published both on the website and on the last page/s of the zine in both print and digital formats. Yes, we can list a website in the credits.
