The Believer, a five-time National Magazine Award finalist, is a bimonthly literature, arts, and culture magazine based in Las Vegas, Nevada. In each issue, readers will find journalism, essays, intimate interviews, an expansive comics section, poetry, and on occasion, delightful and unexpected bonus items. Our poetry section is curated by Jericho Brown, Kristen Radtke selects our comics, and Joshua Wolf Shenk is our editor-in-chief. All issues feature a regular column by Nick Hornby and a symposium, in which several writers expound on a theme of contemporary interest.

The Beverly Rogers, Carol C. Harter Black Mountain Institute is an international literary center on the campus of UNLV. BMI brings writers and the literary imagination into the heart of public life through publications, live events, fellowships, student engagement, and much more.
