Take It Slow Press is a two-woman run distro/labor of love that belongs to Janet George and Kamille Jackson. We began discussing the project in 2015 with the original intent to create an accessible outlet for making and sharing work that thrived independently of our city's existing art/cultural institutions. As we created our first self-published work (our first zines!) and began participating more regularly in local and regional small press events, we became encouraged through interacting with a community of incredibly talented artists and writers (fantastic, genuine, passionate people with such strong personal visions-- we could go on). Soon, we realized we wanted to broaden the scope of what we were attempting.
Moving forward, we're committing to consistently publish and share our original pieces, we're planning on maintaining a regular roster of local and regional zine events, and we're actively seeking out more opportunities to collaborate and create new work.
