We are a venue for fiction, poetry, creative nonfiction, spoken word, and artwork, reflecting diverse cultural communities in the spirit of Southern Nevada.
Our Namesake
The name Helen was inspired by the “First Lady of Las Vegas,” Helen J. Stewart, a pioneer who helped forge the valley in the 1880s.
|
Our focus is on expanding the perspective of the city and greater Southern Nevadan area as well as giving a special spotlight to the local and diverse talent living here and originally from here.
Thank you for continuing to support our magazine!

Helen : a literary magazine has been around since 2014 and has published nine issues. The original issues were print issues only. In Spring 2016, we moved from a traditional print form to a more innovative approach with a combination of website publication with the occasional printing on items such as poker chips.
|
Our goal is to inspire and support emerging writers in all genres. We want to thank all of those who have supported us in our venture and continue to support us as we embrace a new website and design.
