Please note July's #KidLitArtPostcard event is getting pushed out one week due to the 4th of July holiday. You have an extra week to make a great promo piece #kidlitart illustrators. And an extra week for #kidlit art directors, editors, and agents to come on over to Bluesky.

Hi Bluesky artist friends! 👋🏻 So, are we now posting here instead of Insta? I’m still unsure what to do. Maybe leave insta just for announcements like new books etc but post actual work here? What are you all doing? 🩵🩵

Happy Father’s Day to all the wonderful dads out there! 🤍🤍🤍
