Hello intentional peeps! It’s been a minute. Just wanted to let y’all know that the zine will be returning in the coming months. I hope you’re as excited as I am for the upcoming relaunch!

15/09/2020

Better late than never! The fall 2020 ART ISSUE is being put together as we speak. Hope to have it out in the wild by the end of this week. Stay tuned for the link and, as always, stay intentional!

(Fabulous cover art by the fabulous artist William Marasco!)

Hello, intentional peeps! The fall issue of intentional pompadour will be released in either late September or early October, but the wait will be worth it. I think you will enjoy what I've got in store for you. This will be the inaugural Art Issue as well as the 3rd anniversary of the zine's existence. Reaching outside of the confines of the South, I'm excited to announce that we will feature two super-talented Michigan artists that I can't wait for you to meet. The zine is going national! All this to say, thank you for your patience and for your support. Without you, there is no intentional pompadour. More soon. In the meantime, always remember to stay intentional!
