Celebrating the People of Northern Ireland

Kin is an online magazine and collective comprised of writers, photographers, musicians, artists and filmmakers who have come together to document the lives of the Northern Irish.

Contributors to Kin work on a voluntary basis, knowing that what they do brings pleasure to those that read their words, look at their photographs, listen to their music and enjoy their art. It is as much about the nourishment and creative freedom of the contributors as the people who choose to share their stories.

In some cultures or indigenous communities, ‘Kin’ can be used metaphorically to refer to a close-knit group of people who share deep social, cultural, or spiritual bonds, not necessarily based on blood relation.
