Tellus Zine seeks creative teens to join the editorial board!

Are you passionate about sharing your voice, and the voice of other teens? Want to become part of an exciting group of teen leaders in Cincinnati? Tellus Zine seeks creative students, in grades 9-12, to join their all-youth editorial board. Applications due 9/12.

Tellus Zine is a youth-led digital publication, showcasing art and creative writing by young adults from across Greater Cincinnati. Its mission is to provide a platform for young people to express themselves bravely and creatively as a part of our diverse community.

The Tellus Zine Editorial Board plans, creates and shares creative works by teens about issues that matter to teens in an online zine, podcast and open mic events. Members also work on their own creative projects, and gain artistic and editorial skills through guest artists, professional mentors, and hands-on experience. Editorial board membership is a 10-month commitment, with meetings 3-4 times monthly.

Members of the Tellus Editorial Board will reflect the diversity of teens in the Greater Cincinnati region and should be outside-of-the-box thinkers who feel passionate about making a difference and expressing their opinions through art and/or writing.

To apply, submit a complete application by September 12, 2021.

Student interviews will be held Saturday, September 18 and 25, 2021

Accepted applicants will meet regularly on Wednesdays, October 2021 – May 2022.
