Rat World is an independent bi-annual magazine based in Tāmaki Makaurau, Aotearoa.

We showcase the “underground”: Artists, writers, creatives or anyone pursuing interesting independent work in the community. We provide a space for minority creatives (BIPOC and LGBTQI+) who have been traditionally left out from arts platforms, emerging creatives wanting a place to discover their craft, and experienced creatives who want to experiment with something new.

At its core, Rat World is about interesting people doing interesting things.
