Publication Studio New Haven

Publication Studio comes to the Elm City to redefine the social life of the book.

A One-week Residency in the Coop Center for Creativity
November 14 – 19, 2011

Publication Studio, founded in Portland, Oregon in 2009, is an experiment in sustainable publication that has branched into six independent sibling studios around North America.
