Creative Works

Writing, art and photography from the Onion City.

We want your art!

The Winooski News is now open for creative submissions in creative writing, poetry, art, photography, and more. In our new Creative Works section, we aim to highlight local creators and feature art and writing from or about the Onion City. Have any favorite shots you’ve taken around town or an excerpt from the novel you’ve been drafting? Send them our way, we’d love to see what you’ve got.

Send submissions or questions to our editorial team at news@thewinooskinews.com. Accepted pieces will be posted here, on our website, as well as featured in our biweekly newsletters.
