Evanescent Magazine

digital youth magazine aiming to support teen voices through art.

a place for lingering thoughts."evanescent is about the words we easily forget, the voices that are quickly ignored, and the hushed emotions that rapidly fade away. we are here to remember them."

for the people who can't say things out loud, ambitious dreamers with heavy hearts, and young writers who are finding their place in the world.

origin

Founded in January 2024 by a 15-year-old writer (Brielle Benjamin), Evanescent was created for teenagers to express their feelings through writing and art.Oftentimes, young people don't have a space where they feel like they can share what's on their mind. Evanescent magazine is here to showcase young talent while creating safe spaces to share feelings, emotions, thoughts, or other things teenagers hide because of the world.Our goal is to publish young writers with different backgrounds from anywhere!
as a youth literary and arts magazine, we want to showcase all voices and art, as well as highlight marginalized communities.
