OPIRG Brock is looking for 2SLGBTQQIA+ Writers, Visual Artists, Musicians, & Poets to be part of THE COMING OUT MONOLOGUES V.2! DEADLINE: Monday March 23, 2020 at 5pm.

After the success of The Coming Out Monologues performance and vendor market in May 2019, we have brought this programming back by popular demand. For Volume 2, we are moving the project into a zine style publication and webpage! Our version of a zine for this project will be a 6.5″x8″ colour booklet.

For V.2, we are looking for all types of written pieces, visual arts, video, and audio. We will also be adding a webpage on the OPIRG Brock website devoted to the The Coming Out Monologues, where we can embed and link audio and video files to expand the artistic styles and resources we are showcasing. All submissions will be considered, but are not guaranteed to make it into the project. Written pieces cannot exceed a word length of 500 words (if you have a longer piece, please follow up to see if we can accommodate). Audio & video pieces cannot exceed a length of 10 minutes.

At this point, all submissions to this project will be submitted on a volunteer basis. We are pursuing funding options that would allow us to compensate contributors, but cannot currently guarantee payment. We apologize to all the artists we will miss out on because of this limitation of the project.

We will only be printing a limited amount of paper copies, and then making it as a downloadable pdf on the OPIRG Brock website. We are currently exploring funding options for additional printing and for adding close captions to video submissions.

All anonymous writing submissions can be made through this form (either with no credit or a pseudonym/ artist name). In addition to completing this form, if you are submitting an image or a type of visual art, music file (mp3 or mp4), or video file (.mov or .vlc), please email info@opirgbrock.com. You can also submit written pieces, especially ones with specific design specifications, as an attachment on an email to info@opirgbrock.com.

If you any questions, please reach out to info@opirgbrock.com.
