About

Hi there! You found us! Here’s how things work around here.

The Continuist is always looking for drawings, paintings, short stories, photographs, poems, songs and whatever other beautiful creative work you work on. We are based at Ryerson, but we take art from all people who are kind enough to share it with us.

The way it works is that you send your work to thecontinuist@gmail.com and we’ll post it up on our blog and then it will be considered for our zine publication!

Also, you should join our lovely facebook page and keep up to date on all our going ons. We’re always up to stuff, holding events, readings, concerts, and all that good stuff.

The Continuist Mission Statement: To showcase the talents of students in the Faculty of Arts, while promoting creativity and unity within the Faculty of Arts. We aim to inform and inspire our readers and contributors. It’s a literary jam!!!

We made this blog in the interest of making the Continuist a more ongoing group, rather than a single publication. It is dedicated to this years theme: Hourly, daily, monthly, yearly there are activities, ideas, traditions, obssessions and fixations that we return to. This cultish behaviour we participate in can build on the old or take on new forms. Writing and art are ritualistic in themselves, so conflate the product and the process with this year’s theme: THE RITUAL.

We are hungry for inspiration in the arts, a community outside the institution that can share with each other their artistic persuits, encouragement and knowledge. We believe the Faculty or Arts has so much to offer, creatively. Whatever it is you are hungry for … lowered tuition fees, local wines,  paris hiltons sex tapes, veal parmesan sandwiches … we want to know.

Good luck with your individual passions, y’all. We will leave you with an inspiring quote from an ACS homeboy …

‘only passions, great passions, can elevate the soul to great things’

- Denis Diderot.
