Sponsor an Arion Press Subscription
Dedicate an Arion Press subscription for a school, library, or museum that matters to you.
Our sponsored subscription program offers you the chance to donate Arion editions as a tax-deductible gift to a school or cultural institution of your choice. By sponsoring a subscription, you will support the Press and reading community at-large by sharing Arion’s books with new students, children, and audiences eager for the most compelling learning and aesthetic experiences. These books bring insight and inspiration to young artists and readers who appreciate the opportunity to study fine-press editions.
We’ve assembled a list of high schools, museums, and libraries across the country that would be deeply enriched by a subscription to Arion Press—and, of course, we are open to your suggestions if you don’t see your alma mater or local library on the list. Each sponsored book will be fitted with a personalized book plate honoring you as the sponsor.
“Arion books would provide an invaluable teaching resource to inform and inspire our student artists at the Oxbow School. ”
