At the Jasper Project, we’re working harder than ever to keep Jasper Magazine free and available to anyone who wants to read it. We realize a lot of you hold on to Jasper, too, and that’s why it’s important that we create a piece of literary art that is beautiful, informative, and an archival and interpretive narrative of the SC Midlands arts culture. The magazine you hold in your hand costs between $12 and $15 to produce, and that’s without compensating editors or staff. This is almost double what it cost before the pandemic. If you believe in Jasper and our mission to nurture, promote, and celebrate SC arts in all its forms, please consider becoming part of the answer to how we continue to keep Jasper free by joining the guild at whatever level you can afford. Thank you!
