We’re ready to take Califragile to the next level, improving our website with video and other interactive features, as well as expanding to include not just free verse poetry, but slam, hybrid, fiction, flash fiction, creative nonfiction and other forms. We’re planning print anthologies and partnership with a nonprofit to facilitate grants. We will also bring our Arts-into-Action events to Chico and communities around the Northern California region.

We’re looking for editors, IT specialists, and fundraisers. All are volunteer positions. We’re especially interested in welcoming people of color, LGBTQ+, disabled and immigrant writer/editors. What do you want to contribute? To begin the conversation, send Wren Tuatha a letter of interest at califragilepoetry@gmail.com. Include the following, and anything else you’d like us to know:

• Previous editorial experience (not required)

• Genres you write in and publication highlights; Teaching experience, if applicable (not required)

• Your location and willingness/availability to travel to Butte County (not required but very helpful)

• Your first thoughts for new ways Califragile can be a relevant voice for climate change and social justice through the arts

Deadline for letters of interest: July 31, 2020

We look forward to hearing from you!
