Editorial Focus
Strip Mall Magazine is a literary publication based out of the MFA program at California Institute of the Arts, named for the infamous suburban sprawl of Southern California.
Strip Mall is most interested in works that experiment with narrative and form, and fall between gaps in genre—works that remind you that, even in the midst of ugliness, there are unseen possibilities: another street, another corner, another strip mall, in which you might find exactly what you’re looking for.
