Submissions
We welcome submissions year-round responding to works in the Met’s permanent collection and select past special exhibits - all areas, including painting, drawing, sculpture, photography, costume, musical instruments, and the Met building itself. All styles are welcome from poets around the world. We are unable to pay at this time, but we’re working toward it.
Please send up to three poems with a note about the work they reference to metphrastics@gmail.com. Please include a 2-3 line 3rd person bio.
The editors are Amanda Quaid and Jon Rachmani.
Upcoming Theme Calls
We always accept general submissions, but we occasionally put out calls for upcoming theme issues. If you’d like to be considered for a theme, please indicate it in your cover letter.
