About

Dirty Girls Magazine is the brainchild of writing students Joelle Lambert and McKenzie Teter. Bringing their respective editorial expertise to common use, the team (whose friendship spans over two decades) felt the need for a casual and comfortable platform to share compelling art and literature. Bringing their publication to a free, digital platform was just the beginning. Now in the making are Dirty Girls print mags, merch, and podcast! At Dirty Girls Magazine, it's our mission to curate and circulate entertainment and insight, while promoting emerging and distinguished artists on an accessible, worldwide platform.
