KALEIDO ZINE

Editor’s Note:

Dear readers,

Welcome to the inaugural edition of Kaleido Zine! Kaleido Zine aims to be a “kaleidoscope” of creativity, reflecting the ever-changing and endless possibilities contained within the human experience. Created by two high-schoolers in California, our zine seeks to highlight the diverse voices and perspectives of youth across the globe. 

While our first edition is filled with submissions from Bay Area youth, we are eager to expand our reach and welcome contributors and readers from across the nation and around the globe. We accept all kinds of literary and artistic work, from prose and poetry to visual art and fashion design. We encourage all creatives to submit, regardless of experience! 

Thank you to all those who submitted, and we hope you enjoy Edition One of Kaleidozine. 

With warmth and excitement,

Editor-in-Chiefs, Kaleido Zine

Padma Balaji and Jocelyn Wang
