“Geist brings us fine Canadian writ­ing and pho­tog­ra­phy along with its won­der­fully idio­syn­cratic mag­a­zine cul­ture — close enough to the stu­dents that they might just be trans­formed by it.”
—Dr. Janice Williamson, English & Film Studies, University of Alberta

Geist— a smart, funny quar­terly mag­a­zine made in Canada—is an ideal teach­ing tool. Students and other emerg­ing writ­ers and artists find inspi­ra­tion in our great vari­ety of fic­tion, poetry, dis­patches, essays, arti­cles, life writ­ing, reviews and rants, any­where from 100 to 5,000 words long — as well as pho­tog­ra­phy, draw­ings, comix, puz­zles and curiosa of all sorts.

If you are a teacher of writ­ing, com­po­si­tion, lit­er­a­ture, pub­lish­ing or any kin­dred sub­ject, you can get free copies of Geist for you and your stu­dents — no strings, no spam — just by ask­ing for them. The pro­gram is paid for by the Geist Foundation and our gen­er­ous sponsors.
