WHEN I LAUNCHED Vessel last November, I wrote that it is “a soulful publication about creativity, culture, and our collective experience.” Though its scope has become more nuanced, this original spirit remains.
From day one, my goal has been to expand Vessel into a print magazine. Thanks to the support of this audience and a growing creative team, that dream is closer to fruition. I am pleased to introduce our intrepid new intern, Colin Brake—an Atlanta native, a rising senior at Furman University, and the incoming editor in chief of The Paladin. Colin is drawn equally to the newsroom and classroom, and you will see his name in our bylines more frequently. In true publishing fashion, Colin dove in his first week to contribute significantly to Issue 8: Growing Wild.
As we shift our focus to print, our publishing rhythm on Substack will change. Each month, we will create a newsletter that focuses on culture or travel, a Soul Good Dispatch (personal essay), and a full issue.
Vessel strives to deepen connection to place and to each other.
We are excited to keep moving forward. Thank you for continuing on this journey.
Can’t wait to subscribe to the print edition at Good Art Co.! 👏🙌😊
