Meet the Staff!

Each year at AACC a team of students volunteer to lead Amaranths annual journal issue. The student-led staff is in charge of coming up with a new creative direction and layout for the journal, organizing open-mic nights, reading and voting on student submissions, and advertising for journal events. As students graduated and new faces took their place, the one constant desire that inspires the staff is to create a community for those who love the arts. Thank you to everyone who contributed to the journals, it is an honor to showcase your work.

If you need to reach out to any of us or are interested in joining the editorial board, please reach out to our Faculty Advisor Simon Ward at sward11@aacc.edu or email amaranthaacc@gmail.com.
