List of UC Creative Magazines & Journals
The University of California system has dozens of magazines and journals highlighting the creative minds of their students. Yet none of the UC websites contain a collective listing of these magazines, so it is our duty as a student-led magazine to help students find their way to the creative voices across our UC system!
All initial descriptions have been pulled directly from their about pages.

OTHER PEOPLE Literary Arts Magazine
UCSD | Est. 2019 | ActiveOther People is the first student-run literary arts magazine at UCSD. We wish to present the dynamic range of artistic capability inherent in UCSD students, to create an inclusive platform to share creative works, and to encourage literary and artistic exploration among all students. We seek to embrace our core principle of showcasing "O(the)r People," or celebrating at once our diversity, our individual uniqueness, our shared experiences, and our collective journey through this world.
UCSD | Est. 2020 | ActiveKALEIDOSCOPED is a MFA-run literary magazine especially interested in publishing literary and visual art that makes use of cross-genre, hybrid, experimental, unusual, or fragmented forms, and in turn allows us to imagine the world from its creator's unique position within it. We welcome works which contend with historical and ongoing racial and colonial violence in any of its forms.
TREND Fashion & Lifestyle Magazine
UCSD | Est. 2010 | ActiveTREND is a biannual student-run fashion and lifestyle magazine. We are a team of student artists, designers, writers, photographers, stylists and marketing managers. This magazine is the perfect place to be in for anyone with a creative mind and a love for fashion.
Alchemy: A Journal of Translation
UCSD | Est. 2012 | ActiveAlchemy is committed to publishing quality, contemporary translations of poetry, fiction, and non-fiction creative writing. By dedicating our journal to the publication of high quality translations by students and emerging translators, we aim to encourage a new generation of translators. We publish creative translations and adaptations, including homophonic, homolinguistic, and other poetic forms. It is our belief that translation can teach us new things about writing and about language itself.
UCSD | Est. 1966 | ActiveRevellations is a Revelle-based student-run publication committed to fostering and improving individual’s writing capabilities in the genre of their choice. We provide a creative outlet for the Revelle community and encourage self-expression through all written mediums!

UCSD | Est. 2017 | ActiveMulti-Identity Art Collective (MIAC) is an intersectional art group geared toward no one in particular because we take just about everyone! We're just a big family of artists from different experience levels, majors, and backgrounds. It doesn't matter if this is the first time you've touched a pencil or if you've been doing art since you could hold one. We welcome all identities, skill levels, specialties, and majors to come make art with their fellow artists!
UCSD | Est. 2020 | ActiveAntifragile is an artist collective, media platform, and independent magazine created by and for youth artists. Our mission is to highlight and uplift marginalized and underrepresented voices and creatives of color so that they can tell the stories that often get pushed aside. We are a haven for youth artists, especially those who have felt unseen in mainstream media, to feel both safe, supported, and beautiful, as well as angry and loud and heard.
UCSD | Est. 2010 | ActiveFashion Quarterly (FQ) is a premier student-run fashion publication active on Facebook. We collaborate with students and locals to produce semi-quarterly publications each year. In addition to our semi-quarterly publications, we also actively release content throughout the year on our blog
