Become a Supporter of Grid Books and Off the Grid Press!

As a non-profit publisher, we depend on outside support to continue our mission to publish creative work by underrepresented writers and artists, work that spans a range of genres, from poetry and fiction to fine art editions and projects developed through intergenerational exchange. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation today.

Here are just a few of the efforts your donation will help support:

  • Publishing creative work that springs from the margins. For 20 years, Grid Books and its imprint Off the Grid Press has foregrounded creative work that springs from the margins. We are proud of our focus on projects generated through intergenerational exchange, such as those encompassing oral history and collaboration among students and their teachers. We also support the annual Off the Grid Prize continues to recognize and celebrate the work of older poets. In doing so, we bring to audiences important contemporary voices in American poetry too often overlooked by mainstream publishers.

  • Expanding the breadth of our publishing program. In addition to the quality poetry editions upon which our reputation in publishing is established, we have expanded our program to include fiction, fine art, and oral history projects, genres we look forward to exploring and expanding in collaboration with authors and artists.

  • Promoting and preserving the work we publish. We are proud to produce both print and audio editions of all of the poetry publish. Our growing audiobook list represents an important step toward greater accessibility of the work we put forward, and toward the larger goal of collecting and archiving the work of our writers.

Through all of these efforts, we continue to foster and develop meaningful relationships with our authors and artists, and to encourage collaboration at every stage of the publishing process. Our authors and artists, along with our board of directors, share in my deep gratitude for your support. Whether you are donating here today, buying a book from our online shop, or simply helping us spread the word, your generosity will always be appreciated.
