Canon Press is looking to create a pool of graphic design artists to work with on a contract basis. We have all types of projects - small, medium, and large.
If you’re interested in working with us, first have a look at our websites: Canon Press and Canon Wired. Get a feel for who we are, especially by looking at our book covers, and consider whether your “style” is complementary to ours.
Then send us a sample of your portfolio or direct us to your website. If we think you’re a good “fit” we’ll call you. We may even share your portfolio with our friends. Even if you haven’t done much work for others, we’re still interested in seeing what you can do. Really! We love finding fresh, new talent. If you know someone who has graphic design talent oozing out of them, please feel free to pass this on.
We pay fair compensation for graphic design work. However, though your work may be fabulous, if we can’t afford you, we’ll simply say, “No, thanks.” We’re a small publisher and we aim to keep our costs low.
For those of you who are *highly* motivated, have a look at this book cover and show us your concept for a redesign. You can read more about the book here.
Mail your portfolio to:
Canon Press 205 E. 5th Street Moscow, ID. 83843
Or email a PDF sampling to ops at canonpress dot com.
It’s been a year. A YEAR! This month last year we stopped charging for sermon subscriptions. Since then, the weekly mailings of Sermons from the Kirkshirehave doubled. In addition to the weekly mailings, the *free* downloads and podcasts have increased substantially. Praise God from Whom ALL blessings flow.
In a letter to our “subscribers”, we encouraged all manner of sharing, duplicating, and uploading. And we still say, “Give them away to anyone who wants to listen. Let the Gospel flow to all who have ears to hear.”
The weekly sermons are sent out in beautiful mailers (see above) that are both efficient and a cost savings. We also have two local volunteers from the church who come in every Monday and do all the work. I’d like to take this moment to sing the praises of Mr. Joel King and Mr. Jim Griffith. Two faithful men who consistently show up every week and work behind the scenes to get the sermons out to our growing list of recipients. Thank you! We couldn’t do it without you.
The material and mailing costs, per year, for one subscription is about $100 - that’s 52 weeks of glory delivered directly to a mailbox near you. If you’d like to support this ministry, please consider a gift to cover the cost of one subscription, or more. It’s tax deductible! You can send us a check or use our handy online donation form (scroll down to the bottom of the page - we’ve hidden it). We welcome your support and we’re thankful to all of you who support our ministry.
If you know of someone who needs a bit of splendor from heaven in their life, for whatever reason, please point them towards our *free* download page or pick up the phone and call us (800-488-2034 Ext. 112) or email us: orders at canonpress dot com, or place an order online - and it’s still free!
Why is it special? Because we’re offering over 50 books for $1, $2, or $3 a piece.
Need we say more? We’re desperately trying to clear out some space in our warehouses for new books, and until these ones go, we can’t bring new goodies in.
Click on the button above to visit the sale and grab some books. And please, please, please tell your friends: we really need this sale to be big. If you have blog, please consider posting about this sale—feel free to download the graphic above (right click + “Save Image As”) and post it there. Tell your friends and fellow bloggers to do the same.
This sale lasts until next Friday, May 8th. Don’t wait too long, though: quantities are limited, and they’re going fast.
Our online “garage sale” last week went so well that we’ve decided to do it again—this time with lots more books! For a limited time, we’re offering many of our titles for a mere $5 each. So stop by, browse, and take advantage of this special sale.
For those of you who live in the UK, I must apologize: we can’t ship any of these books through the UK Rapid program. We hope that the ridiculously low sale prices help make up the difference!
Have you visited worshipinharmony.com yet? If not, we strongly suggest that you stop by—especially if you’re interested in the Cantus Christi and/or robust part-singing. This website is a gathering of resources and aids designed to help you understand how Worship in Harmony works and why it’s so helpful.
For example, we have a number of collected articles on the importance of robust worship and the beauty of four-part harmony. The most recent addition (from our own Mark Reagan), discusses the challenges of part-singing and the importance of educating ourselves musically.
We also have videos to explain just how to use the Worship in Harmony CDs, either on your home stereo or on your computer. As you can see (and hear) below, they are helpfully narrated by sound technician, Austin Storm:
Finally, if you want to give Worship in Harmony a test-run, just head over to our Listen page. Not only can you hear each part individually (as well as enjoy the ensemble recording), but you can also download the sheet music and follow along with the singers—just like you would with your Cantus at home.
Keep the site in your bookmarks: we plan to regularly update it with new helps and guides, along with answers to any questions or queries we might receive. And if you have any such questions, queries, or other comments, please feel free to send us an email anytime.
