El Portal is open to submissions from all artists and writers. Submissions are published on the basis of talent, content, and editorial needs. El Portal serves as the creative forum for the students, faculty, and staff of Eastern New Mexico University (ENMU) as well as artists, writers, and photographers worldwide; consequently, the views expressed in El Portal do not necessarily reflect the viewpoints and opinions of ENMU as as whole.
El Portal now accepts submissions via our Submittable page. Our open reading period for our fall issue runs from July 1st to August 31st. Our reading period for spring runs from December 15th to February 15th.
