Artists Commune of Arizona

Arizona local? Creative looking for creative? Have no place to showcase your work? Looks like you’ve found the right place!

Are you an Arizona local? Maybe an artist? Perhaps you’re someone looking to promote your own work? Well I am starting a magazine for local creatives to not only showcase their work, but promote events they are either going to attend or host, and have a section to help you find ways to fund your struggling artist lifestyle!

The idea behind Artists Commune of Arizona, or ACoAZ for short, is bring our ever-growing community together. Some artists will never have the opportunity to showcase their work without having to give up an arm and a leg, while others barely have enough time to put anything together. The goal of ACoAZ is to provide a space where artists can show what they got, divulge further into their art, make friends, find mentors and use the zine as a way to add to their portfolio.

Submissions for the first zine are done as of January 2nd, 2025, which is so exciting! The goal currently is to get it published and printed by the end of the month and open submissions for the next one as early as February! Check out the Instagram and please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions! We would love to have you for the next issue!
