Dear friends –
This is a quick note to update you on Arte Público during these difficult times.
Although some staff members are working remotely, our office is currently open. We are practicing social distancing while actively filling orders, sending books out for review, fielding permission requests and working on books to be published next season.
Customers can continue to place orders via email (bkorders@uh.edu) and fax (713-743-2847). Please direct questions about orders to our customer service department (800-633-ARTE).
For authors, artists and arts administrators receiving this message, please be aware there are resources available to you. As an example, below is a link to the Houston Arts Alliance’s list of COVID-19 resources, which includes information about government assistance and emergency grants:

Also, be sure to check our resources page that includes teaching guides with fun activities children can do at home.
This is a rapidly evolving situation and things may change; we will keep you posted. Meanwhile, please follow us on Facebook and Twitter for updates and other opportunities to access books and authors.
We wish you well during these trying times and look forward to connecting with you online for now and in person at conferences and events in the future.
