Welcome!
The Tamarind Journal of Literature, Art, and Culture is a yearly compilation of literature and art produced by University of The Bahamas students, faculty, and alumni. The journal serves as a platform for a diverse range of talented creatives to share their gifts with the local and international creative communities through poetry, short stories, digital and physical art, sculptures, photography, and many other mediums.
Here, you can take a look at our past volumes, free to read online, as well as our growing collection of online works. We hope the work of our contributors delights and inspires you!
Submit Your Work
Tamarind accepts writing and art from all University of The Bahamas students, faculty, and alumni, regardless of their field of study.
If you would like your work to be printed in the upcoming edition of Tamarind, then the deadline to submit is early in the Fall semester. However, if you would simply like your work to be published online, then the Online Library is always accepting submissions!
