*The next set of MEA season-retrospective publications are in production. Staffing changes, the coronavirus, shipping delays, and other unexpected events in our operations caused some delay in the series' production. MEA s10, s11, s12, s13, and s17 are now in stock, MEA s14, and s15 are nearing final stages of design and MEAs16 is heading to the printer very soon!

AND an American Graphic Design Award winner (Interval) featured in the 60th GDUSA Annual Showcase.




The Manifest Exhibition Annual

Through nine seasons Manifest Press produced 74 full-color catalogs documenting the works selected for every exhibit presented in our galleries. Starting with season 10 (fall of 2013) we shifted to the design of one much larger high quality hard-cover publication documenting each entire season of exhibits, artists, and works shown. The Manifest Exhibition Annual continues Manifest's commitment to long-term documentation and dissemination of our projects, and the expansion of physical exhibits into a broader geography and time frame, while also bringing all exhibits together under one cover each year to create a better product which will be more valuable to the public, teachers, libraries, and exhibiting artists. The book is even larger in size than our INDA, INPA, and INPHA publications, and is designed, printed, and distributed with the same quality and attention to detail. The MEA does not replace those media specific exhibits-in-print, rather it complements them, and rounds out Manifest Press's nonprofit publication suite perfectly.

Once the retrospective production is caught up each publication will be designed and printed within the first quarter of the following season, and expected to ship by the following January. (Manifest's exhibit season runs September to September each year.

Visit Manifest Press to see past catalogs (the old style) and our award-winning INDA, INPA, and INPHA books.
