Aesthetica Magazine - The Cultural Arts Publication

Submit now for the new Annual

Creative Works Competition

Three winners £500 each

Aesthetica is looking for undiscovered talent.

The Aesthetica Annual Creative Works Competition is a new and inspiring competition, which will result in the production of the Aesthetica Annual Publication.

After five years of accepting submissions for Aesthetica Magazine, and due to the ever-increasing volume of submissions, we have decided to run an annual competition, which is open to poetry, fiction and artwork. The new Aesthetica Annual will be a launch pad for creativity

The Aesthetica Annual will be published 25 November 2008 and all winners will be notified by 31 October 2008. Deadline for submissions is 31 August 2008.

The Aesthetica Annual will be available at Borders stores nationwide, and will showcase the best creative works from 2008. It will take the form of an A4, glossy coffee-table book.

The competition is simple - send us your best creative works and our team of Editors will select a winner entry for each category, and the shortlist of runners up will receive a slot in the Aesthetica Annual as well.

What are you waiting for? Send us your creative works today!
