We’re excited to have Issue 05, Seeds, in your hands very soon! Published by Riverside Press and printed locally by Arkay Design & Print, each chapter within this issue had been curated to explore a different concept of the seed; from the exploration of the seed and our roles to propagate them, to the metaphorical seeds of journeys required to grow as individuals.

We’re looking forward to sharing the hard work of our contributors and the galt. team alike with you all! ❤️ Drop by our launch at 63 Dickson St on Oct 30, or pre-order your copy today.
