Kolaj Institute’s Collage Publishing Workshop is a four-week virtual/online workshop for artists interested in developing publications from a body of work or a project. Part of Kolaj Institute’s Artist Development Program, it serves self-motivated artists at any career stage who want to expand their collage-based practice and pursue professional goals.

Participants will explore how a book can function as a place to experience collage and how publishing relates to exhibitions and the wider history of art publishing. The workshop considers different publishing models and formats, including zines, art catalogs, monographs, and books, with a focus on projects intended for mass production and distribution.

Artists will develop their publishing projects, present page spreads, and receive feedback. Presentations address copyright and appropriation, printing, and launching and marketing a publication. Participants will finish with a publishing project or a detailed plan for one and a deeper understanding of how publishing can support their practice.

Faculty listed for the workshop is Ric Kasini Kadour, a writer, artist, publisher, cultural worker, and editor and publisher of Kolaj Magazine.

Sessions take place Sundays, 27 December 2026-17 January 2027, 1-3PM EST. The Early Deadline to Apply is Monday, 9 November 2026; the Final Deadline to Apply is Monday, 23 November 2026.
