Volume 14 of Corridor is out and about. The cover is revealed above. Thank you collage artist Kathleen McKeever for your vision! Keep your eyes out for it as members of the Corridor Collective leave them at locally-owned businesses throughout Bellingham and Whatcom County. Rumor has it, a person may be able to find copies in Portland, Oregon next week.
Thank you The Poetry Department for posting a story about the little zine that could.
Corridor is a monthly zine featuring original poems by poets who live along the I-5 corridor. It includes 10 thought-provoking poems and space for print-ready art. It is available from April 2024-April 2025. If you want to submit a poem or art please email me here or at shannnon dot chickadee at gmail dot com.
