MOSAIC ART & LITERARY JOURNAL

Mosaic is Kellogg Community College’s student art and literary journal featuring art and writing created by KCC students and published annually once or twice per year.

Each issue is designed by KCC Graphic Design students, with cover and inside art Mosaic Recognition Awards awarded each spring at the College’s annual Student Art Exhibition award ceremony.

The next print issue of Mosaic will be released in December 2024. The theme for the issue, courtesy of United States Poet Laureate Ada Limón, is “What would you write in response to the landscape around you?”

Students interested in submitting written work for the issue should send it no later than Oct. 18; art submissions are due Nov. 18. Submission information is in the dropdowns below.

Art Submissions

Animation, Art, Graphic Design and Photography students are welcome and encouraged to submit visual art they have created during the Summer 2024 and Fall 2024 semesters for consideration for publication in Mosaic. While all appropriate subject matter themes will be accepted, we have embraced a theme of “response to the landscape around you” for the next edition, thus students are encouraged to submit landscape images.

Students interested in the opportunity to have their visual art published in Mosaic should submit their entries and a completed Mosaic Art Entry Form to Ryan Flathau at flathaur@kellogg.edu. Please include “Mosaic submission” in the subject line of the email.

The deadline for art submissions is Nov. 18. The student Art League will adjudicate entries for Mosaic inclusion.

Prizes will be awarded for one cover and one interior art submission!

Writing Submissions

The next print issue of Mosaic will be released in December 2024. The theme for the issue, courtesy of United States Poet Laureate Ada Limón, is “What would you write in response to the landscape around you?”

Students are welcome to submit fiction, creative nonfiction or poetry. Work should be saved as .doc or .docx files and sent to English Professor Tom Webster at webstert@kellogg.edu by the submission deadline of Oct. 18.

Please include “Mosaic submission” in the subject line of the email.

Mosaic History

The earliest mention of a KCC literary journal is in the September 1964 issue of the student newspaper, which announced a call for submissions to a College literary magazine then called Perhaps.

The title of the magazine changed to Perigree during the 1984-85 academic year, and to Mosaic in 1999.
