Expressions Student Literary Magazine

ACM's Expressions celebrates creativity of our students by compiling their original literary and artistic works (essay, fiction, poetry, and artwork) into an annual volume. All current students are invited to be part of Expressions and share their unique perspective and talent with a regional and national audience. You do not have to major in the arts and humanities, or multimedia technology to participate in Expressions.

Each student may submit up to 10 files or images of their original work for consideration. An editorial board of faculty and staff members assist with the selection process. Expressions is edited by a student editor and guided by faculty editors. 

Expressions is submitted to the Community College Humanities Association to be judged as part of its national literary magazine competition. ACM competes against literary magazines from community colleges in CCHA’s Eastern Division, which includes Connecticut, Delaware, the District of Columbia, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Puerto Rico.
