Meet Hearth
Eoin Farrelly, Conor Ennis, Charlotte McCulloch, Elena Stack Martin, Priya Evans, and Aisling McGorrian are all students of English Literature at Trinity College Dublin.
Over cups of coffee, restaurant dinners, and cigarettes on balconies, the initial conversations were had about creating a magazine. It’s funny what a few offhand remarks can do to your life. Our many small ideas slowly blossomed into a collaborative work that all of us are enormously proud of.
In August 2024 we held our first writing session together. It was during that time that Hearth really came to life. Art is personal, and it took a great deal of vulnerability to share artistic parts of ourselves with each other. That vulnerability laid the foundations for how we want this magazine to be.
The hearth is the centre of the home. It is a space for community and connection. You bring your story to the hearth, but most importantly, the hearth is where you listen.
Setting out on your writing journey is daunting, and sharing work is even more daunting. But there is a community full of writers and artists that are eager to listen and to help. At Hearth, through public writing groups and an open, accepting ethos, we aim to create a space for bringing this community together, to foster an environment that accepts emerging writers with open arms, and a nice cozy seat at the fireside.
We found a home here, and we hope you can too.
All funds generated from issue sales and donations go into future prints and helping to grow the Hearth community. Hearth Magazine is not in the pursuit of profits. Print media is becoming increasingly difficult to support in the modern digital world, and we only want to help ensure the fire doesn’t go out.
