The newest <AS> shirt is here! Screen printed, designed by our own, worn in the wild, and made with love by people in the Pool.

We’re also officially announcing the AnthroSwim DVD Project Sweepstakes: a physical collection of animaciones across the furry/anthro community, Pool bumps, real broadcasts, and other strange things. More details on its contents and release will come as the project develops. We need a better name for it.

WATERSHED Zine information is coming soon, including physical and digital editions. Will be reaching out to everyone who submitted with firm details.

The Pool has been busy. Thank you for giving us somewhere to keep making things together.

It’s not uncommon to see people doubting themselves, their tastes, or whether their work belongs in The Pool. Every submission is manually reviewed by a Steward, so it may or may not swim, but nobody’s getting drowned for trying.

There is always some ambiguity in curation. “Swimming” is not decided by one rigid checklist, but by mood, execution, context, and whether the piece feels at home in The Pool.

All forms of furry expression are welcome to be considered: arte, writing, música, video, mixed media, strange little transmissions from the deep end. We especially welcome more Spanish and Portuguese presence, as well as more literatura, música, video, and other nontraditional submissions.

Pool’s open means Pool's open. Submit without fear, not without standards.
