Based on sheer word count alone, the NY-themed Slanted #26 highlights the amazingly diverse amount of talent that springs from VCFA.

Alum Christine Lhowe explores the visual vernacular of the different neighborhoods in Manhattan and the insights of aspects of culture within in one of the new issue’s main essays.

Faculty Silas Munro’s “Acting Up At Home” explores the history of Housing Works, an NYC non-profit that has served more than 25,000 homeless and low income New Yorkers living with HIV / AIDS and the direct descendent of ACT UP and Gran Fury.

VCFA MFA student Dannell Macllwrath gives readers a three dimensional tour of New York City via her essay “3D Interurban Experience”― a dizzying, synesthetic prose-based tour of The Big Apple.

Native New Yorker and VCFA Chair Ian Lynam writes about how one can move halfway across the world but still always remember the smell of the home in his essay “Escape from New York”.

Faculty member Geoff Halber and his compatriot Kyle Blue of Everything Type Company are interviewed alongside VCFA guest critic Glen Cummings of MTWTF, 2×4, Other Means, and a host of other New York luminaries.

VCFA: We write. We make. We get published.
