About UT Austin Silk Club

Silk Club at the University of Texas in Austin is a dynamic student organization dedicated to creative expression, artistic collaboration, and community building. Founded in January 2018, Silk Club has established itself as a vibrant hub for Asian women and queer folks to cultivate their artistic talents and engage in meaningful creative projects. The organization operates with a structured team of talented directors and contributors who work collaboratively to produce high-quality creative content and programming.

The organization is best known for producing QUIET!, a bi-annual zine that showcases photography, writing, art, design, and other creative works centered on Asian and Asian American experiences. QUIET! has become a flagship publication that brings together diverse voices and perspectives from the Austin, TX community and beyond. The zine operates within a social justice-oriented and feminist framework, providing a platform for marginalized voices and Asian creatives to share their stories and artistic visions.

Silk Club's programming extends beyond publication to include community events, collaborative projects, and engagement opportunities. The organization maintains dedicated teams focused on creative development, editing, graphics, social media outreach, and community engagement. With multiple co-directors and creative team members, Silk Club ensures that each aspect of their work receives thoughtful attention and professional execution.

The organization is committed to validating and empowering intersectional identities while building creative opportunities that foster connections between different Asian communities. Through their work in Austin, Silk Club actively works to unlearn stereotypes and reclaim narratives around Asian and Asian American identity. Members are encouraged to participate in all aspects of the organization, from creative contributions to event planning and community outreach initiatives.
