Painted Bride Quarterly’s editorial staff is triangulated out of Philadelphia, NYC, and Abu Dhabi, with a community-based process for work. PBQ publishes poems, stories, and nonfiction that represent the individual, with a preference for the clever, irreverent, and urbane. Its authors, both emerging and established, are published in alternating themed and unthemed issues. Founded in 1973 at the Painted Bride Arts Center in Philadelphia, PBQ is currently housed at Drexel University.

Painted Bride Quarterly accepts up to five poems, fiction up to 5,000 words, and essays and reviews up to 3,000 words, in any genre or school (occasional exceptions are made). Check the website for upcoming themed issues.
