Illustoria 23: Past & Future

Illustoria is a print magazine for creative kids and their grownups. We celebrate visual storytelling, makers, and DIY culture through stories, art, comics, interviews, crafts, and activities.

In our twenty-third issue (featuring cover art by Charlotte Ager), go on a mind-bending journey through time and space! Learn about ancient worms found in an iceberg and brought back to life. Is time travel possible? We asked a poet-engineer to tell us. In our comics section, Dora the Cat tries out for a job as an archaeologist, and Dog Chef delivers a fruit salad snack that any dodo bird would crave! Diego Romero joins us in an interview about his work in contemporary ceramics rooted in indigenous traditions.

Young writers and artists submit drawings about robots and tales of futuristic interstellar pen pals! And as always, enjoy music, art supplies, and book recommendations.What are you waiting for? Hop in your favorite figurative mode of transportation (spaceship, hovercraft, or zeppelin, anyone?) and join us on this wild adventure!
