Save a draft
Keep work out of public view while you develop it. You can return to it from your profile.
A place for your perspective
Share what
moves you.
Every work begins somewhere.
A feeling. A question. Something you cannot quite let go of.
Submission guidelinesArt · Writing · Human experience
01 / What to bring
Your experience is
a starting point.
An artefact might be a painting, a poem, a photograph, an object or a personal story. An article gives you room to explore an idea about art, culture or human experience.
Tell us what draws you to it. Which feeling does it hold? What might another person notice, recognise or see differently?
02 / Prepare your work
Give it a little context.
- A titleChoose a name that helps someone find their way into your work.
- The work itselfAdd your writing or upload clear images. Check that everything is readable in the preview.
- A feelingFor an artefact, choose the emotion that connects it to the constellation. Articles can include an emotion too.
- A description and creditsExplain the context where it helps. Credit sources, collaborators and any material made by someone else.
Follow the file types and size limits shown beside each upload field. For an article, you can also add a preview image from your computer.
03 / Choose what to share
A draft is not a submission.
Publish to your profile
Publishing and museum selection are separate. Check the visibility setting before you publish an article.
Submit to the museum
Send your work for curator review. Acceptance makes the selected version part of the public museum collection.
Only submit material you are comfortable having displayed publicly if it is accepted.
04 / Museum review
What happens next?
Send your work
Open your work from your profile and use its museum submission option when you are ready.
Follow its progress
Look in Museum submissions in your profile for the review status and any feedback.
Return to the conversation
A curator may accept the work, request revisions or decline it. If revisions are requested, use the feedback to prepare another submission.
Submitted and accepted articles keep a fixed version for review. To continue editing, make a draft copy. Changes to that copy do not automatically update the accepted article.
05 / A little care
Make room for another.
Share work you created or have permission to share. Be clear about what is yours and what comes from another source.
Respect the privacy of the people in your stories and images. Leave out personal information they have not agreed to share. When a work touches on difficult experiences, give readers enough context to choose how they engage.
Bring curiosity to other people’s perspectives. In comments, respond to the work and speak from your own experience.
