Call for Mixed Race Asian Writers ~ Poets ~ Visual Artists ~ Photographers ~ Filmmakers ~ Scholars ~ Activists

Mixed Up Productions is currently accepting submissions of written and visual works for an anthology by and about mixed race Asian and Pacific Islander artists.

The project began as a trilogy of limited edition “Hapa” chapbooks: “Mixed Up” (2000), “Too Mixed Up” (2000), and “All Mixed Up” (2006) were received with much critical acclaim. Currently, public readings, film screenings, and other events are taking place throughout Canada and the U.S. for the final chapbook. Entirely handcrafted, each individual chapbook is unique in its cover design.

The forthcoming anthology will include contributions from all three chapbooks, as well as a fourth section on new, unpublished works. In the tradition of the original chapbooks, the anthology will contain a wide range of works spanning poetry, short stories, monologues, performance art, visual art, scholarly essays, activist statements, and photography.
