At Sightlines, we take a spacious view of culture. We publish articles about visual art, performance, theater, dance, books, film and music, and also public art, design, architecture and historic preservation.
Our writers also examine cultural ideas and broader social issues relating to all art forms, or things historical that are salient to our current times. Our articles offer strong, clear, lively writing for a culture-curious general reader, and we avoid art world or academic jargon
Based in Austin, Sightlines is always open to coverage from other Texas cities and places, and occasionally beyond.
We do not accept unsolicited articles.
