          THEMA, the
          theme-related journal, has three 
            goals. One is to provide a stimulating forum for established and emerging 
            literary and visual artists. The second is to serve as source 
			material and inspiration for teachers of creative writing. The third 
			is to provide readers with a unique and entertaining collection of 
			stories, poems, art and photography.
