The Publisher Club is an eight-week writing program that teaches crucial writing, copywriting, and journalism skills. Each cohort attends workshops and receives the opportunity to have their work shared through The Queer 26 or other partnering online blogs. By the end of the Club, each participant will have completed at least three projects that can be added to their portfolios.

Participants will also have the opportunity to participate in internships at partnered companies/agencies.

Applications for Spring 2023 are now closed.


With your support, we can provide more resources for QTBIPOC storytellers.

WHY BECOME A SPONSOR

Help Create New Opportunities

Our projects create new opportunities for writers, directors, artists, designers, and cinematographers. Furthermore, our training programs don’t stop when the program is over - we aim to help each creative find a position or set themselves up for independent success.

Make Your Support Public

Our work focuses on QTBIPOC folx. Your sponsorship gives us the ability to support up-and-coming queer creatives of color that deserve to be seen.

Support the Community

Your sponsorship allows us to run programs that train up-and coming queer and BIPOC creatives. These programs also create jobs for more seasoned creatives that want to help educate the next great wave of videographers, photographers, writers, and designers.

Expand Financial Equity

It’s hard to be a creative. Artists need money to buy materials and tools, to rent space, and to prepare for a career. Your sponsorship will provide low cost-cost tools and resources that may otherwise be out of reach for QTBIPOC creatives.
