This is Wedgie Magazine, an independent publication conceived in December 2021. From our inception, we've been dedicated to showcasing a diverse array of artistic expressions. Following the release of our debut print issue in 2021, we swiftly followed with a second edition. Both garnered a plethora of amazing submissions and collaborations. To complement these major releases, we also curated limited print mini-issues, that were exclusively available at our in-person events.
As we progressed, we found ourselves embracing a new identity as a dynamic art collective. In the summer of 2022, we introduced our first vendor market event, providing a platform for artists to showcase and sell their creations. The overwhelming success of this spurred us to host numerous subsequent markets and shows, cultivating a vibrant community of creatives.
At the heart of our mission lies a commitment to empower artists in New York City and the surrounding areas by offering opportunities for exposure and collaboration. Over the past two years, we've proudly facilitated gallery exhibits, allowing artists to curate and showcase their work to a wider audience for free.
As a collective, publication, and community, we remain in a state of perpetual evolution, continuously brainstorming for our next issues and NYC-based events. We eagerly seek to expand our horizons and forge new connections with artists, collectives, venues, and beyond. Please feel free to reach out to Hi@wedgiemag.com with any and all inquiries – we'd love to hear from you!
