In each print issue, aAh! Magazine interrogates one word which runs as a theme throughout our creative submissions. This time, we’re changing things up as we introduce our aAh! The FRESHERS Issue 23/24 and launch our ‘Welcome Home to Manchester’ Featured Artist brief.
This special mini issue of aAh! will feature a guide to all Manchester has to offer. We will shine a spotlight on the freshest spots in our city and serve up budget-friendly recipes, share advice, opportunities and experiences. Packed with tips and tricks to help new and returning students navigate university life, The FRESHERS Issue will be essential reading for all looking to get the most of their time studying in the best city in the world.
To celebrate thousands of new students preparing to make Manchester their home this September, we invite all creatives to response to the theme: Welcome Home to Manchester.

We invite student artists to submit up to ten images to be considered for publication in our latest print magazine. Fine artists of all practices welcome, illustrators, photographers and graphic designers. Send us a brief bio and explanation of how your work relates to the theme.
