a print first zine reporting live from the worlds most misunderstood beach town.
the diving horse is an independent, woman-founded print magazine covering the city’s art, history, music, politics, nightlife, events, and assorted human debris. we make things for people who still like paper and have enough sense not to think atlantic city sucks.
summer 2026: freewillmaxxxing
in freewillmaxxxing, locals and tourists talk music, community, third spaces, clavicular, and more. we unpack the female founder of chelsea and her son who later became one of the funniest mayors in atlantic city history, and so much more. down to our last 50 copies so act fast, we don't do reprints.

album of the month:
if tony hawk ever decided to make a pro skater video game in atlantic city, this would be the soundtrack. good times is the ultimate song of the summer. listening to it just puts you in a good mood. it's great to listen to on a walk, at home when you're getting ready to pregame, when you're feeling really sad and need a song to cry to, when you're feeling really happy and need a good song to vibe to. you can play it at a bar, on the beach (at reasonable volume lol), while you're working out. that song just does something to your insides that can only be explained by experiencing it.
the paper magazine, digital editions, paid substack, a birthday treat, and the extra little things we make throughout the year.
the diving horse is a small, independent magazine run by one woman, a dream, and an amount of thc best left to accounting. subscribing helps pay for printing, postage, hosting, and whatever we make next. thank you for keeping the horse alive. thank you for keeping print alive and atlantic city fun.
