Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox magazine Dunes Review is an online literary magazine based in northern Michigan. It is sponsored by both Michigan Writers of Grand Traverse County, Michigan and the Glen Arbor Art Association of Leelanau County, Michigan. The Beach Bards of Glen Arbor also contribute financially for the poetry prizes.

History

The Dunes Review Writing Project was launched in 1996 by local poet, playwright, and writing teacher, Anne-Marie Oomen. A key early focus of the magazine was on promoting regional writing and to raise consciousness about Northern Michigan writers. It also utilized art by local artists for its cover. It was originally sponsored by Glen Arbor Arts Association and the Traverse City Arts Council with the financial support of a mini-grant from the Michigan Council for the Arts and Cultural Affairs. Their first issue was published in the spring of 1997.

In 2002, there was a transition in management. The Glen Arbor Art Association began to share financial, advisory, and publication responsibilities with Michigan Writers (Traverse City). Today, the magazine focuses on the best local as well as regional and national writers.
