  • Bree Von Tease

    “I would hands down recommend other pin-ups to submit for future issues! Being part of the pin-up community is about sisterhood and welcoming - I definitely felt that energy! And it's a good pick me up too when one has those days where they just feel down.”

  • Vintage Vanessa

    “Being part of True North Pin Up means the world to me. I believe that beauty comes in all shapes, sizes, and backgrounds, and it's so inspiring to see a magazine that celebrates that. I hope that seeing women like me in the magazine can encourage other women to embrace their unique beauty and feel confident in their own skin.”

    “Submitting my pin-up art to True North Pin Up has been an incredibly rewarding experience. The magazine’s dedication to revolutionizing and connecting the Canadian Pin Up community resonates deeply with me. It’s been a joy to contribute my work alongside so many talented Canadian artists, retailers, and photographers, all while celebrating the vibrant vintage culture we hold dear.”
