Occasional Press taking part in Vancouver Art Book Month!

Join us for an early evening reception, book table and launch of our 2nd publication, Practicing Neighbourly Responsibility at the Emily Carr University Library on October 18, 4-6pm.

This event will be the second public event for the Occasional Press and the first occasion for us to host a book table as well as showcase our feature publication, Practicing Neighbourly Responsibility, edited by Jean Chisholm and Laura Kozak, part of a larger initiative in place-based responsibility. A unique limited-run publication documenting a pedagogical experiment in place-based responsibility and attuned to social and ecological dynamics on unceded territory, the printed volume makes use of deadstock and supplies from The Stationery Project and Riso-printed inserts.

This in-person gathering will be a launch for the book and will include readings by the contributors. In addition to this, our book table will showcase volumes published by Occasional Press, creative stationery works by The Stationery Project, and information about our future publications. Do join us!

This is part of Vancouver Art Book Month. Art Book Month is  a parallel series of events hosted in spaces across Vancouver by a variety of artists, curators, collectives and institutions who are  actively creating and presenting work in this medium.
