About us

Launched in 2009, Plumb Line is a Montreal based web magazine of cultural criticism. While focusing on its vibrant home city, its scope is international. Providing original content, Plumb Line also visits the darkest and most neglected corners of the web to expose thoughtful and engaging criticism of today’s culture.

Plumb Line seeks to provide voices to those otherwise not heard in the mainstream media. Scratching the surface of underground culture, we understand that smart, intelligent and unique artists are spawned from many and all types of societies and circumstances.

As such, we welcome submissions touching on any of the subsections here at Plumb Line (Politics, Film, Music, Art & Literature). Whether you are a student looking to write outside the tight confines of acadamia, an aspiring writer or just a stay at home mom with something to get off your chest, send your submissions to submissions@plumblinemag.com
