Clarion West featured Artist 2026
Clarion West incorporated as a nonprofit organization in 1986, with
workshop alumni and other interested members of the science fiction
community forming its first Board of Directors. With the help of many
dedicated volunteers and a core of committed professional staff, Clarion
West has produced some of science fiction and fantasy’s top writers and
editors. Graduates have received every major form of recognition in the
field, including the Hugo, Nebula, and World Fantasy Awards.
Their vision is to set emerging and underrepresented writers on the path to success by fostering greater equity and inclusion in the speculative fiction world, bringing quality speculative fiction to light, and bringing writers and readers together.
Each year, Clarion West works with a new artist to create an image that is used across their website, social media, and specialty needs, such as the summer poster, tote bags, and notebooks. The art is custom designed by a new artist each year with their personal interpretation of speculative fiction.
