⏸ Deadline is May 21st, at 11:59 EST ▶️
We have gone through a lot in the past year.
Keeping with the theme of this year’s edition of galt. we invite you to pause for a moment, and draw a tree.
The instructions are simple:
1. Grab paper or a sketchbook, go outside, and draw a tree!
2. Tell us where you sketched the tree, what species it is, and the date it was drawn.
3. Write one sentence that responds to one or more of the prompts found on our website.
4. Scan your drawing and submit a square JPEG or PNG (min. 1500 x 1500 px) to the Google Form by May 21 at 11:59PM (EST).
All trees will be assembled in a digital forest and posted on the galt. website and social media in the coming months. You may also hear from us for a chance to be published in our fall issue!
This project was inspired by one of our project submissions, "Let's Draw A Tree" by Justin Ng.

galt. publication is reaching out for participation in this new project: here & now. We are inviting students to contribute work that takes a critical stance on racial (in)equality, identity and aspects of othering. Anywhere from 100-500 words and up to five (5) images, we invite you to share completed or in-progress work, academic or personal, reflections or interventions, essays or sketches; the medium is your choice.
Additionally, we are reaching out to students to submit instances of their lived experience, be it in recognized discrimination, microaggressions, discomfort or whatever they might feel confident to share. In a one to three sentence format, we hope to reveal these injustices in print. All work will have the option to be submitted anonymously as to protect the identities of participants.
You can find the link for submission and our full brief at galtpublication.com

galt. has chosen to participate in the ongoing activism by questioning our own position in a system that demands change. We have, therefore, decided to hit the reset button; to rethink our foundations in a new light, and to commit to more than just rhetoric. As an initiative dedicated to amplifying the voices in our community, we feel it is important to recognize our complacency, acknowledge our mistakes, and actively work to decolonize printed space for the sake of racial, gender, social, and environmental justice. Speak out, be thoughtful, and stay safe, friends.

About galt. publication

galt. publication is an independent student initiative begun at the University of Waterloo’s School of Architecture in 2017. We curate an annual, peer-reviewed print journal dedicated to publishing student work in the context of the larger architectural scene. The publication brings together the voices of students at schools of architecture across Canada with a large community of schools, designers, activists, professionals and academics. Its mandate is to promote discussion and engage young designers with the contemporary architectural discourse. We are currently beginning work on our third issue.
