Want to hire local artists but not sure where to start? With listings by 50 Twin Cities artists and writers, this directory de-mystifies the process and price of hiring local talent. Learn skills, like how to operate a sewing machine, or how to stilt walk. Hire entertainers for your next party, like a live caricaturist. This directory is a practical resource (hire a handyperson), a professional resource (find a publicist), and an imaginative resource (hire a Play Consultant). The impact of investing in a service-based local arts economy is multifold: it sustains artists with basic income that helps them survive, thrive, and make their work. It creates art experiences that are deeply relational. It fosters art outside of museums, galleries, and institutions. It imagines ways for artists to interact with a general audience that are practical, ethical, interesting, and fun.

About — 1. More queer voices merit publishing than get published. 2. Queer storytelling is intergenerational memory. 3. In telling history, place is as important as time. 4. Photocopiers are a powerful and practical tool for DIY publishing. 5. Own the means of production and share it. 6. No publication is too short. Scope Note: We publish non-fiction, erotica, and informal research-based writing. We are interested in local queer history, community libraries, community archives, queer archival collections, queer textiles, arts organizing, oral history, local walking tours, queer place/space, overlooked stories, DIY culture, queer correspondence, the obscene, and the absurd. Publications can take many formats, not limited to zines, pamphlets, and facsimiles using typewriters, photocopiers, and ephemeral inclusions. We are not a literary press or a comics publisher; poetry, fiction, and graphic narrative fall out of our scope.
