Advertise with us

Lux is a feminist magazine covering politics and culture, founded in 2021. We publish a glossy print edition three times a year featuring our award-winning writers, and a regular newsletter.

We are interested in the many points at which identity intersects with politics. Our coverage runs from in-depth political reporting — on underground abortion networks, for example, or on abolitionists’ 911 alternatives — to reviews of the latest batch of bisexual novels and reports on feminist politics from Afghanistan to Mexico.

We publish established and emerging writers and artists, delivering their work to readers in over a dozen countries.

Lux welcomes pitches. Send a short email outlining your idea and why you’re the one to write it to [email protected].

For general inquiries or to tell us your thoughts, write to [email protected].

For assistance with your subscription or merchandise orders, please write to [email protected].
