Vain

About Us

Vain Magazine is a semi-annual publication that combines the innocence of art with the modernity of the world. Established by artists to provide art-enthusiasts of all kinds with a new form of collaborative art, Vain connects and combines writing, visuals, and music to immerse its readers in beauty.

Vain believes that it isn’t impossible to make something with integrity.  By providing artists with an avenue of hope for publication, we make it our goal to promote the betterment, growth, and popularity of the arts, not forcing it in any direction but instead showcasing its development.  Above all, Vain should be viewed as a standard, not a barrier, a building block, not a wall.

We are always accepting submissions for our next issue. Send all entries to submissions@callmevain.com or submit online. You will hear from us.
