EVENT is still seeking cover photo submissions from BC-based photographers.

In Editor Shashi Bhat's words:

"We're looking for unique photos that catch the eye--on newsstands, on social media, on a coffee table--and we particularly love photos that suggest a theme, a dinstinct mood and/or narrative. Photos should be in landscape format and contain enough negative space for us to include the title, issue number, bar code, call-outs, et-cetera."

Have a photo you think fits? Send it to via the link in our bio.
