Why Publish?: Reframing the Stakes of Student Publications

Tue, Jul 26, 2022    5:30pm

Why Publish? proceeds from a space of uncertainty. It asks that we consider the urgencies, imperatives, dependencies, and stakes of publishing within schools of design; that we pause before printing to reflect on why another publication is even necessary. This workshop is rooted in the belief that why and how we publish is just as important as what we publish. It aims not only to provide students with the tools and resources to create their own publications but to think thoughtfully, generously, rigorously about the limits and possibilities attendant to printed work. Why Publish? offers students the space to be in conversation with the Office of Publications and its collaborators—modeling a supportive editorial exchange that insists on publishing as a collective project with collective consequences.

Introduction by the Office of Publications:

  • Isabelle Kirkham-Lewitt, Director
  • Joanna Joseph, Assistant Director
  • Meriam Soltan, Assistant Editor
  • Isabelle A. Tan, Assistant Editor

Presentations by:

  • Laura Coombs, Graphic designer
  • Nicholas Korody, Writer, editor, designer
  • Jacob R. Moore, Curator, critic, editor
  • Grace Sparapani, Writer, editor

This event will be presented in a hybrid in-person and virtual format; register for the webinar on Zoom here.
