ABOUT

The outermost boundary. The farthest limit. The outer edge.

For over sixty years, Periphery has prided itself on consistently achieving high quality while publishing talented undergraduate authors and artists. We are an annual, awarded, student-produced art and literary journal based at Drake University. We are committed to showcasing high quality work by undergraduate students that is deemed “on the periphery.” We focus heavily on works that don’t fit standard conventional categories or defined boundaries. The journal encompasses short fiction, poetry, art, and everything in between. With this journal, our staff hopes to showcase talented undergraduate writers and artists and to defy conventional norms.

Below, you can find our lovely staff who work hard to make Periphery what it is.
