Tree’s mission is to bring the creativity and talent of women over sixty to a
wide audience of readers of all ages. We are looking for work that reveals rich
experience and a variety of perspectives. Each issue of the magazine will
include several fiction and nonfiction pieces, poetry by one or more poets, and
the work of one or more visual artists. The magazine is published quarterly, in
association with Mills College.
