Welcome to ArtsRush Magazine

ArtsRush has been on the web since 1997, starting out as a South Coast NSW arts magazine, eventually evolving to cover art from all across this blue planet. Arising from her passion for all things creative, editor, Colleen Duncan, established the site as ‘Rush – online arts’ to add to the voice of South Coast arts. Colleen also runs a busy graphic design/editorial business, HOLLY HILL GRAPHICS on the NSW South Coast. We will continue to cover visual arts, performance, poetry … sometimes subversive but never boring. Because we’ve removed just about all the content from the old ArtsRush site, we’d love to hear about your story ideas.

We also welcome good quality poetry which will be considered by our editorial group prior to publishing. Submission guidelines
