VISUAL ART, ANIMATION, VIDEO & MUSIC

Submissions for the 2027 Phoenix will be accepted through 11:59pm Sunday, February 7, 2027. 

Why wait until the last minute? Submit your work now!

All art must be submitted online. Be sure to follow our submission guidelines below to ensure there are no problems with your entry. Please limit your submissions to four per category.

We ask that submissions are recent, original work that have not been previously submitted to the Phoenix or appeared in another publication year.

Artwork submissions should not be fan art or derivative of another artist's work. Any form of master study or appropriated work must be noted in the title or statement.

Each submission is required to have a thoughtful artist statement and title. “Untitled” will not be accepted as title for submissions.  

Submission Guidelines

Create an account with Submittable. It's easy! All you need is an email address. From there, you'll want to carefully follow the submission guidelines for each category such as image size, file types, and so on.

2D & 3D artwork submissions must be scanned or photographed by you using these guidelines. If your work is selected we will professionally photograph the work for you. If you have questions, please contact Martha Lewis, the Phoenix Art Advisor, at mrlewis@clark.edu.

Digital art submissions must be submitted as a high quality digital file to ensure accurate printing.

If selected, animation, video, and music submissions will be uploaded to our YouTube channel by the Phoenix staff and then embedded on our website. To be featured in the print edition, include a still frame graphic as well.
