A forum for women’s creative work—including work by women of color, lesbian and bisexual women, young women, old women—CALYX Journal breaks new ground. Each issue is packed with new poetry, short stories, artwork, photography, essays, and reviews. CALYX Journal is known for discovering important writers, such as Julia Alvarez, Paula Gunn Allen, Olga Broumas, Natalie Goldberg, Barbara Kingsolver, and Sharon Olds, among the more than 3,800 writers published during our first 32 years. CALYX was the first to publish the artwork of Frida Kahlo in color in the U.S.
