Advertising Guidelines and Policies
Advertisements are printed in black and white and are measured according to the final size listed (without bleeds or trim).
Generally speaking, we prefer advertisements and materials related to creative writing, literature, arts and culture, local businesses, or other complements to the conference's mission, vision, and goals. Completing the advertisement form does not guarantee purchase. All advertisements and materials are subject to approval, and we reserve the right to refuse or revoke any advertisements or materials as we see fit.
All advertisements should be formatted in a CMYK color space and sent as flattened 300 dpi .pdfs. All advertisements and printed materials must be received no later than Jan 1, 2020 in order to be fulfilled. No refunds will be issued for late or missed advertisements.
To purchase an advertisement or discuss an exchange, you can submit an advertising inquiry.
