IAMB Issue 5: The Graduation

Graduation isn’t just a ceremony. It’s a moment of release, an act of bravery, and a step into the unknown. It’s the friendships you leave behind, the places you outgrow, and the dreams you chase into the horizon. It’s a celebration of growth—and the bittersweet sting of letting go.

In this issue, IAMB invites you to explore the theme of “The Graduation.” Share your poetry, prose, photography, or art that captures what it means to move forward, to close a chapter, or to boldly embrace what comes next.

We’re looking for work that’s daring, bold, and unforgettable—pieces that make us feel the leap, the loss, and the liberation.
