Permanently Closed: This project is permanently closed to submissions (November 2020). We provide the following information as an archive.

About

From the first issue onward, jubilat has aimed to publish not only the best in contemporary American poetry, but to place it alongside a varied selection of reprints, found pieces, lyric prose, art, and interviews with poets and other artists. Rather than section off these varieties of work, the magazine creates a dialogue that showcases the beauty and strangeness of the ordinary, and how experiments with language and image speak in a compelling way about who we are. Response to jubilat has been overwhelming. Work from our issues has been selected for inclusion in Best American Poetry; The Pushcart Prize: Best of the Small Presses; and five times for reprint in Harper's magazine. The magazine has also been featured in Poets & Writers, The Chronicle of Higher Education, and on National Public Radio's All Things Considered, and was shown in the New York Public Library's 2002 exhibit New American Literary Magazines.
