A print featuring red, black, and blue text on a white background. The text reads: "ABOLISH THE PRESIDENCY." The black text in the middle also has two decorative elements, exclamation points turned on their side.

A print with solid red text and blue outline text on a white background. The text reads "ABOLISH ICE."

I made some very quick Riso prints from scanned wood type. The prints are for local distribution (for now) but PDFs with color separations are available for free download on the NLP site. 8.5 x 11. Use as you like! www.newlightspress.com#/abolish-ice/

i’m still offering a variety of work at buymeacoffee.com/allisonanne/extras with all proceeds to mutual aid, and artwork at allisonanne.bigcartel.com is 50% to mutual aid!

added 23 additional small works to the mutual aid shop

buymeacoffee.com/allisonanne/extras

And you can do Media Mail too!

And use a shipping service like Pirate Ship so you don't have to pay retail prices. Pirate Ship is free and easy to use.

If the prints are small enough I use a chipboard mailer with an extra cardboard insert if possible. If they're too big for a mailer I sandwich them between two sheets of cardboard with space all around and tape up the edges. I hoard sheets of cardboard from paper orders to do this.

MCBA does have scholarship options available.

This workshop is designed for beginners or folks that have done a few publications but want to think through their practice with others. It's the first step in toward a long-running dream of an advanced professional practices curriculum for artist-publishers.

There will be spreadsheets, lists, diagrams, and much discussion. Participants will work through a complete plan for a publication, fictional or real, and build customized digital tools along the way.

As the title implies it will be a close, nitty-gritty look at all aspects of collaborative publishing as a creative practice: ethics, responsibilities, risks but most of all possibilities.

Collaborative Publishing Deep-Dive — Minnesota Center for Book Arts In this virtual workshop, we’ll take an in-depth look into the often hidden labor of publishing artists’ books: working with collaborators, budgeting, pricing, payments, sales, distribution, and promo...

A screenshot of the NewLights Press website store. There is a navigation menu for the website at the top, and another navigation menu just for the store below that. The page "Books From Friends" is highlighted in red. Below that are images of books laid out in a 3 x 3 grid. The first four have different colored cardstock covers with a different small image printed on each. The fifth shows a receipt book with its first page unfolded. The last shows a a book cover with the image of a white man with glasses and short hair in profile. The book is bound with thread wrapped through two holes on the left side of the book. The titles and prices of the books are listed under each image. They are: "2 Lists & A Poem Abt Lists," $5, "Shit Slips," $5 "The Paint Factory Years," $9, "Halcyon," $9, "Before I Spoke to Myself," $9, "Probably, Ohio," $15.
