Creek: The Journal of Undergraduate Environmental
Writing and Art
An online journal that publishes original essays,
poetry, fiction and artwork focused on place-based
or environmental subject matter. Environmental or
place-based writing and art ask us to reevaluate
the ways in which we construct our relationship
to the natural world. They often move us to take
action and to participate in the stewardship of
both the local and larger natural and human communities.
