Orangepeel Zine
orangepeel is a totally digital magazine inspired by the aesthetics of print literary magazines, especially those coming out of universities. The magazine’s goal is to give readers something they’ll remember.
orangepeel is also dedicated to creating a global narrative and showing the ways that many different people can relate to one another through art and writing. We have featured work from every continent aside from Antarctica and are proud to share BIPOC and LGBTQ+ perspectives.
COTTON: RAW MATERIAL & PRECIOUS METAPHOR
In January 2020, The Weaving Mill got word that Notre (a clothing store in Chicago) was seeking a home for some 500 pounds of partially-processed cotton waste material, from a manufacturing plant in South Carolina.
A few months later, with the pandemic putting the freeze on most projects and programs, TWM decided to make this raw material the centerpiece of the 2020 W.A.R.P. (Westtown Artist Residency Project) cycle. From April-June, they sent out 97 boxes of cotton fluff to artists around the country to do with it what they would. They received a great variety of responses back, which are documented and showcased in an exhibition and publication, Cotton: Raw Material & Precious Metaphor.

Composed of recent MFA, BFA and Certificate graduates, B.A.S.E. is a reaction to PAFA’s administration cencorin faculty and staff who signed a petition for Philly Arts in support of Black Lives Matter. B.A.S.E. was a show of solidarity to students, faculty and alumni who are demanding that the PAFA Board of Trustees restructure their leadership and addresses its own white supremacist and patriarchal history.
