Pocono Believe 2025: Portfolio Showcase

Get Your Illustrations Seen with a Portfolio Display

What is it?

This is a free opportunity to display your work for our agents, art director, and editor faculty to peruse during the retreat. It's a great way to show what you can do AND the kind of work that you want to do. Compile your best pieces–ones that showcase your range of character design, setting, storytelling, mood setting, and the like. Consider having different sections for different age level work (i.e. PB vs. YA graphic novel or cover work). Full color artwork and B & W pieces welcome.

Deadline:

  • Bring your portfolio display with you to the retreat. Setup will occur at the time of registration.

What to bring:

  • Your current portfolio in a sturdy bound book format.
  • One separately matted piece OR a completed dummy to display BEHIND your portfolio.
  • An easel or other stand on which to display this additional piece OR dummy.
  • Business cards, bookmarks or other small promotional items that fit IN FRONT of your portfolio display.
