Dear SILLY GAL Community,

It comes with a heavy heart to announce that SILLY GAL's hibernation will be extending indefinitely. After over forty issues and over four years, SILLY GAL's time has come to an end. 

I started SILLY GAL when I was 18—ready to jump into the world of publications—writing, editing, curating, you name it. And it has been with me ever since, acting as a time capsule for all who have submitted. We have fossilized our youth—with all of its vulnerabilities, strengths, and humors. This has been the proudest project of my life. I owe each and every one of you a million tokens of gratitude. I have learned more about art, the world, and myself during this journey than I could have ever thought was possible.

  But you think I'd leave you high and dry?! Never! Silly Gal will have one last hurrah. For well over a year now, there have been promises, rumors, and collections of print edition submissions, and we are grateful to those who have already contributed. But now is truly your last chance. At the end of this summer, a beautiful bound edition of SILLY GAL will be available for purchase, shipping, and collection everywhere. I hope that you will consider submitting and being involved with our project one last time. 

I love SILLY GAL with all my heart. It's plastered over everything I own. It's my baby! But, as time moves on, so do I. Let's make this last volume the best one yet.  

So much love,

Lucia Auerbach
