The Dulcimer is Mercer University's award-winning literary arts magazine. We were named a 2017 Columbia Scholastic Press Association Gold Medalist and a Columbia Scholastic Press Individual Gold Circle award winner in both 2016 and 2017. Since 1966, we have annually published submissions of art and literature by students, faculty, and alumni in an effort to promote an appreciation and love of the arts. Our student staff is involved in the process of selecting submissions for publications and receives training in In-Design to create beautiful layouts for selected pieces. We encourage submissions from all departments. Our publication accepts all kinds of creative work...

"It felt very rewarding. I worked hard on all of my poems, but there's no guarantee they'll get in. The wait for any news is tense in a good way, but getting that email feels like your hard work is paying off. And everyone's excitement when the Dulcimer finally drops makes it even better. The happiness is very contagious."- Breanna Carter
