From Pitch to Publish in the Public Humanities
Mon 2/2 - Tue 2/3 RSVP
Royce 314
Join award-winning writers and journalists Lauren Markham and Chris Feliciano Arnold for two days of panels and workshops. When: February 2–3, 2026 Location: Royce 314 Free and open to the public. Today, it is vital that scholars’ work is made widely available and accessible to the public. Is your research part of the public discourse? Do you have stories the public at large would benefit from knowing? Do you want to reach a broader audience, an audience beyond the peer-reviewed academic outlets? Do you want to learn how to pitch your specific story and research to non-academic publications? We have invited two writers and journalists, Lauren Markham and Chris Feliciano Arnold, to offer insights on the public humanities writing, pitching, and publication process in a series of panels, workshops, and individual feedback sessions.
