Write for us
We welcome clear, original pitches about taking part in culture: making, visiting, learning, sharing and the choices that help an activity fit real life. Proposals are sent through the Contact page.
What we welcome
Pitch an evergreen article that helps a general reader understand a cultural activity or make a specific, low-stakes choice. Useful subjects include getting started, comparing formats, planning a visit or explaining how a shared creative process works.
What makes a good pitch
Include a working title, the central question, the practical point a reader will take away and why the subject suits Lively Culture Guide. Keep the idea focused enough to explain in one article. Tell us about relevant experience without implying credentials you do not hold.
Before sending
Please send a proposal rather than a finished article. We cannot promise publication, and a pitch should be original and free of material copied from other sources. Use the Contact page and select the editorial option.
Culture grows when people join in
Taking part does not require expertise or a polished result. A good starting point is an activity that fits your interest, time and circumstances.
