Artist Publishing Practicum
March 22-23, 2025
The Artist Publishing Practicum is a crash course on pathways to book publishing, designed for visual artists and open to all.
This virtual weekend intensive was created to demystify the publishing process—by artists, for artists. Workshops are led with generosity and care by our supportive network of authors, editors, and mentors. Together, we’ll explore:
- a comprehensive introduction to book publishing vocabulary
- major models for book production and distribution—including traditional literary publishing, collaborative art book publishers, small independent presses, and micro-publishing / chapbooks / zines
- when and how to budget and fundraise for a publishing project
- strategies for using publishing as a tool to build and support community
The Practicum is an accessible, supportive environment for artists, artist-writers, and artist-publishers to freely exchange resources and skills. Live open captions included; ASL on request.
Organized by at Louis Place, a community for writers. Made possible with the generous support of Wagner Foundation.
