[teaser]However, sale of our beautiful books, annual subscriptions to all our publications, and tax-deductible contributions are what keep us afloat! We take great pride in maintaining a high level of craft and working with independent booksellers and printers (our print volumes are lovingly prepared and bound by Spencer Printing in Honesdale PA) – please let us know if you are interested in becoming a vendor or collaborating professionally with our community of artists and writers!
