GINGER BUG PRESS IS HIRING!

we are officially looking for a managing editor to join our team! the managing editor will work in close collaboration with the editor-in-chief (Lip) to manage day-to-day operations of the press. this role is new and evolving, with a lot of room for self determination based on personal interest/skill set, but will include editorial work, project management, and working directly with artists. a full job description and application instructions can be found at the link in our bio!

PLEASE NOTE: this is an unpaid, volunteer position!! my (lip’s) dream is to get the press to a spot where we can afford to pay staff a small stipend, but it’s not feasible at this moment. we also have a strong preference for folks in the boston area (more hands to staple books/table markets) but are open to remote candidates as well if the fit is right!!

big news! we have stickers now!! let everyone around you know that you support independent publishers and they should too!

these 2.5in matte stickers will hold up well on water bottles, laptops, and anywhere else you could think to stick them probably. they’re live in our shop right now or you can pick up some ~in person~ this sunday at @_hasslefleamarket in cambridge !!

profits from these stickers (and any others we make in the future) will go to web hosting fees and keeping a little extra in the GBP coffers so we can cover upfront costs of future projects. thanks for helping sustain us!!

(if you want to buy just a sticker and save on shipping, select the “stamped” shipping option at check out — we’ll mail it to you in a non-tracked, stamped envelope for only one dollar!! please don’t select this option for anything other than *only* stickers) by @gingerbug.press
