What is Squinch?

Squinch Magazine is a visual arts & literature magazine that provides a platform for undergraduates to write about the art world, as well as showcase their own art. Here, you can find editorial reviews of shows and exhibitions, essays that engage with art history, features of local artists, details of art-related current events, and a semesterly showcase of undergraduate student work.

Created by and for undergraduates, Squinch offers a unique space for students of all concentrations to delve into the visual arts.

In the Spring of 2020, the COVID-19 Pandemic forced Squinch to come to a halt. Most of the publication's founding members graduated, and COVID created a lack of resources needed to sustain the publication for even one more issue.

In Spring 2022, Squinch Magazine was rediscovered by passionate undergraduate students wanting a platform to showcase their love for art.

Today, Squinch Magazine is being run by a passionate team of undergraduate students creating a publication that embodies their ideals of art.
