Lehigh Valley Literary Magazine is a literary nonprofit dedicated to publishing poetry, fiction, nonfiction, plays, and visual art online and in print. Our goal is to enrich the development of language skills, literary techniques, and artistic methods through individual collaboration on publications and performances. The magazine aspires to improve interconnectedness, expand compassion, and construct meaningful dialogue among communities in the Lehigh Valley and elsewhere in the world by encouraging discourse of diverse cultural themes in real and imaginative ways. In addition, The Daydreamer Prize was created to fund prizes in literature and art for contributing authors and artists.

Please send an email with your resume and/or a link to your portfolio to Contact@lvliterature.org if you are interested in any of the opportunities available on the night of the fundraiser.
