CURRENT ISSUE

ISSUE 2025.YEI

Published July 16

2025.YEI is an Open Call

No theme. Just truth.

EASTSIDE Magazine is accepting submissions for 2025.Yei, dropping this July! We're keeping it open and intentional because our community doesn't fit into neat boxes, and neither should our stories.

Right now, when so much is working to divide us, we’re choosing to listen, uplift, and reflect the powerful voices of East San José and beyond.

We’re calling on YOU: writers, artists, poets, photographers, storytellers, and community members. What’s on your heart? What do you need to say right now? Let this issue be your platform.



I love what you and the staff have pulled together. I especially love how the magazine inspires more meaningful connections to the community.
— Alex Daus, Community Member

INVEST IN OUR MISSION

Thank you for joining us in this journey of impact, inspiration, and power alongside each other.

We couldn’t do it without your support. Most of our operating budget—smaller than what most mainstream magazines spend on a single issue—comes from the generous contributions of people who believe in our mission. The money we raise goes directly into improving the magazine and elevating the stories of our eastside community.

Through this magazine, we aim to emphasize a sense of pride, appreciation, and understanding of East San José as not just an important point of destination, but a home with a rich cultural legacy as the heart of San José.
