Publishing Projects
With the help of teachers and book professionals, we publish select student work created in 826 Seattle workshops and publishing projects.
826 Seattle anthologies, as well as those from other chapters of the 826 National organization, are on sale in our store and online at www.greenwoodspacetravelsupply.com. All proceeds from the sale of books (and space travel supplies) go to fund 826 Seattle programs.
