Welcome to Amaranth’s virtual home!

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 December 17th at 11:59pm.

If you’re interested in preforming and open-mic nights you can find our Coffeehouse schedule and Writers Reading dates in News and Events.

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