Started in 1927, the Philippines Graphic is the longest-running printed magazine of national circulation that provides relevant news and features and promotes Philippine literature.

We believe that by making available online the short stories and poems published in the Graphic and in our companion magazine, the Philippines Graphic Reader, we ensure that these works are readily available to be read and enjoyed by everyone for generations to come.

Positivity is our best feature. We continue to highlight the best in the Filipino at every difficult juncture of our nation’s history. It is in stories of the human condition that we strive to speak the truth.
