Editorial Content Suggestions

ARTE NOIR is currently accepting editorial content suggestions and talent to serve as guest writers for our monthly editorial content and newsletter. Is there a local, national, or international Black artist, maker, or organization you would like to see take the top spotlight in our publication? Would you like to be the author of said spotlight? Selected writers will be paid a stipend for their pieces and featured in an issue of ARTE NOIR. We also welcome guest writer suggestions.
