Advertising Opportunities

Overview

We’re excited about partnering with like-minded brands and organizations to bring the Mourning Papers to life. Our print-only publication celebrates the creativity and storytelling of writers and artists in our region and beyond.

Our rates are designed to be modest and accessible, reflecting our belief in mutual support—for small businesses, contributors, and the community we’re building together.

  • Connect readers to community-centered businesses and orgs in the area

  • Cover existing print & distribution costs

  • Provide compensation to our contributors for their work

  • Cover some of the costs for our operational labor (editorial, design, production, coordination)

Investment
