Writers' guidelines

Artlink is open to a very wide range of writers throughout Australia. We encourage writers to contact us if they are interested in contributing. Artlink rarely accepts unsolicited manuscripts.

Because Artlink is a themed magazine which tries to make art relevant across society, we often need to find contributors who have expert knowledge of subjects outside of the art area who can put the work of artists in a broader context.

Write to or email the editor with your CV and one or two examples of previous published writing plus a list of published articles.

We can provide you with our upcoming themes. We offer $300 per 1,000 words. We expect writers to source the images for articles and liaise with artists or galleries for permission to use the images in the print and online versions.
