Femme Art Review is planning a print issue around the theme of collaboration, specifically queer and feminist collaboration. This theme is inspired by the prevalence of artistic collaboration in Canada and how artists have addressed critical concerns with a queer and/or feminist lens. We are particularly interested in intergenerational dialogue and discussion. Although this theme has artistic collaborative practices in mind, we are open to a range of collaborations, collectives, and interpreting the theme more broadly.
+Features
+Long-form essays or interviews that explore an artist’s practice through an in-depth analysis. Features can discuss a particular theme related to art or culture, including broader aspects of culture (food, music, life experience, etc.).
750-1500 words
An honorarium will be provided upon publication for accepted submissions.
+Reviews
+Short or in-depth reviews that review local, national, or international art exhibitions. We also accept reviews of other media such as books, films, or music. Please note that reviews do not necessarily need to fall under the theme.

An honorarium will be provided upon publication for accepted submissions.
We can provide an honorarium of $150 CAD per piece for the upcoming print issue.
Submissions will be accepted by April 18th, 2022.
Please Note:
+ We encourage submissions from everyone interested, but please note that we accept submissions that best reflect our mandate to support women and LGBTQ2S+ artists and writers.
+ Submissions from writers who are part of underrepresented groups, including BIPOC writers (Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour), disabled writers, and writers with diverse backgrounds and interests are highly encouraged.
+ It’s recommended to read our past content to get a feel of our voice as a publication. We are open to more personal and experiential forms of art writing.
+ According to the number of submissions we receive at a given time, we may not be able to reply to unsuccessful pitches.
