Description

This workshop offers to you and your staff a great opportunity to get a head start on next year’s book, and is perfect for new and returning advisers, to either learn the basics or to see the latest trends in design, while their staffs have fun and learn everything they need to know about yearbooks.  The Houston Office of Taylor Publishing Company takes pride in offering leading instructors year after year.  Each session provides the opportunity for competition and awards.  The FOUR-day line-up includes lunches, entry to all sessions, and a workshop t-shirt.  Students who would like to stay on campus may choose the overnight option, which includes all meals.
