Snaggletooth Magazine is the only creative arts publication run by and serving the Bates college community in Lewiston, Maine. Founded in January 2018 by two underclassmen with the generous support of WRBC (Bates College Radio), Snaggletooth is a student-led written and visual arts project for and by the community.

Each semester Snaggletooth compiles poetry, prose, and multimedia art into magazines that are printed and distributed on campus. Bound to no theme, format, genre or medium, our goal is to showcase and celebrate student writers and artists and to revel in the unsettling, the impolitic, the peculiar, and the particular. Snaggletooth Magazine is an outlet for these forces of the written word, and the image of the snaggletooth serves to represent this—a sharp, tough, unbalanced, and deeply organic thing that asserts its presence by jutting out against the grain.
