Wetlands

Wetlands is Puget Sound’s publication centered around the exploration of personal identity through creative expression (ex: writing, art, etc.). The magazine aspires to be an inclusive, accessible, and safe space for student advocacy and communication. Wetlands is available both online and in print. Find back issues through Collins Library.

Wetlands magazine is a casual, collaborative environment focused on uplifting marginalized and queer voices. If you like art and writing about how our identities shape us and the world around us, Wetlands might be for you!
