Our History
Horizon Review is a new literature & fine arts magazine under the umbrella of the nonprofit organization, FUSION—a local professional theatre and cultural & arts hub in Downtown Albuquerque. FUSION, home to the FUSION Theatre Company, was founded in 2001 and has been meeting needs in our community for over twenty-four years! Our multi-venue, 35,000 square foot campus hosts live music, dance, comedy, theater, and a myriad of special events. With three stages and both indoor and outdoor event spaces, FUSION is New Mexico’s home for creative and cultural exploration and is an anchor of the Downtown Albuquerque Arts & Cultural District.
FUSION’s mission is to incite global empathy through storytelling, positively impacting the human race. We are dedicated to professional excellence, community-inspired creative space, and the inspiration of our children, the genesis of our future.
Our Motivation
FUSION is an established hub where artists have found a safe place to express, enhance, and showcase their creativity. We recognized a need arising in our community for a container to hold stories rooted in the moment. Print publication is where the past, present, and future converge—an ideal outlet for local artists to plant an offering of hope to the community, which will transcend time. Art draws from the past and reflects the current times. It challenges us. It helps us look to the horizon at a future we can imagine and co-create together. We started Horizon Review to provide an accessible outlet, a platform where our voices can be heard.
