The call for submissions!

The call for submissions for Panel's eighth issue is officially open!

We welcome nonfiction, poetry and visual art from (or about) Central and Eastern Europe with no specifications in theme.

Nonfiction pieces are of special interest to us this issue. We believe that in these times, when people are struggling to connect with each other and the world is not as open as it was, writers have been presented with a special opportunity to reflect on this shared historical moment with honesty.

We welcome nonfiction pieces that are provocative, experimental and sincere.
