If you're looking for Jai-Alai Books, please click here.
Jai-Alai Magazine publishes poetry, fiction, essays, and black & white drawings. The magazine began in 2011 with Issue #10 and will end with Issue #1. Jai-Alai's series of interlinking covers, designed by Inah Mercedes, Jenni Perri, and Juliana Urrego, loses a bar each issue to reflect the magazine's process of disappearance. All work in Jai-Alai magazine comes from Miami-Dade County residents or from notable non-Miami writers who were commissioned by the editors. We have a special interest in pieces about or exploring Miami and a commitment to publishing work-in-translation. Please read our submission page carefully if you're interested in participating. To purchase an issue, see our Purchase page.
