About

Welcome to dandelion Magazine, one of Western Canada’s oldest literary magazines and publisher of innovative and fresh literary and visual work. Our mission is to promote literary innovation, primarily through publishing emerging and established authors of experimental writing, but also through engaging in community events in Calgary and the Canadian arts community. We publish 3 times each year, offering inspiring and bewildering examples of work which pushes the boundaries of genre, tradition and imagination. We give you the up-to-date scoop on the literary scene, and also look fashionable on any coffee table, card table or end table.
