Call For Artists!
​

Every October, St. Johns Magazine celebrates the incredible talent that lives and thrives right here in our community. This year, we’re once again shining a spotlight on local artists—those whose creativity, vision, and dedication enrich our neighborhoods and inspire us all.


We’re looking to profile a diverse range of artists, from traditional painters and sculptors to photographers, mixed-media innovators, and even makers and crafters. Whether you’re established in your craft or just beginning to share your work, we want to hear your story. Art has the power to connect us, spark conversation, and bring beauty to our everyday lives, and we believe our community is stronger when we lift up those who create.


If you are an artist—or if you know someone whose creativity deserves to be highlighted--we invite you to nominate yourself or recommend a local artist for consideration. This is an opportunity not only to showcase your work but also to share the passion and purpose behind it with thousands of readers across Northern St. Johns. Together, let’s celebrate the artists who remind us of the importance of imagination, expression, and beauty in our lives. Submissions and recommendations are open now through September 11th —we can’t wait to see the talent our October issue will bring to light. ([email protected])
