Founded in 1995, Thin Air Magazine is a non-profit, graduate-student-run literary magazine published by Northern Arizona University’s (NAU) English Department. Located at 7,000 feet, at the base of the San Francisco Peaks in Flagstaff, Arizona, Thin Air is the highest-elevation literary journal in the country. The print issue is published annually in the spring, while content appears year-round at Thin Air Online.
Our goal is to build and maintain a Flagstaff-based literary community that reaches across the Colorado Plateau and beyond. We are excited to host events that empower emerging writers from the surrounding community, including NAU and Coconino Community College, and simultaneously cultivate fellowship among MFA Programs throughout Arizona.
