Subject: Matchbox Magazine: Publication opportunity for your students!



Hello!


My name is Melissa Pilato and I am a student editor at Matchbox Magazine,
an annual UC-wide literary and visual arts publication. I am reaching out
to you today because we are accepting undergraduate submissions for our
21st edition (prose, poetry, visual art, music, and spoken word), until the
submission deadline of 1/3/27. If you have not seen our previous editions
around your campus before, then you can also check them out at our website
<https://studentmediawebdev4.wixsite.com/matchboxmagazine/publications>.


Matchbox is a wonderful opportunity for students who have not been
previously published to receive recognition for their work. Last year, we
received approximately 200 total submissions thanks to our contacts at UC
Riverside, ultimately enabling us to represent the collective artistry of
UC undergraduates in our 20th edition. We hope to have a large presence of
UC Riverside undergraduates in this year's issue, and believe we can make
that happen with your help!


Students can submit their work to Matchbox Magazine at our
matchboxmagazine at gmail.com or by using the QR code on the attached flier.
Feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns. You can also
message us on Instagram <https://www.instagram.com/matchboxmagazine/?hl=en>,
or contact us directly at matchboxmagazine at gmail.com.

Submissions at a glance:

   -

   We will be accepting submissions from now until 1/3/2027 (limited to UC
   undergraduates)
   -

   Submissions can be sent directly to matchboxmagazine at gmail.com or by
   using the QR code in either attachment
   -

   All schools represented in our magazine will receive copies of our 21st
   edition to be circulated among their student body


I have attached submission fliers below and would greatly appreciate it if
you could virtually distribute them to your students via email, or your
campus’ Learning Management System (i.e. Canvas)! In addition, please
consider forwarding this information directly to your department’s advisors
to include in their newsletters or email bulletins– this would benefit our
cause immensely. I would also value your direction on any other resources
on the UC Riverside campus that could help spread the word (student
organizations, faculty, newsletters, and more).


Thank you for your time and I look forward to hearing from you!


Best regards,

Melissa Pilato
