Good Company (Issue 1)

Published last year, Grace Bonney's In the Company of Women is a continuing bestseller that shows how women of all ethnicities and backgrounds embraced their creative spirit, overcame adversity, and sparked a global movement of entrepreneurship. Bonney now takes the next daring step to serve and inspire that same movement with the launch of &Company, an illustrated biannual journal. The mission of &Company is to provide motivation, inspiration, advice, and a vital sense of connection and community for women at every stage of life. Each issue of &Company focuses on one overarching theme, including Change, Mentors, Work, and Motherhood. Content includes first-person essays and pep talks from well-known women in the creative world; studio visits and interviews; group discussions; and in-depth explorations of specific fields and niches, from designers in rural areas to women reviving the art of embroidery. And throughout, readers will find useful, targeted advice on how to tackle common problems like navigating copyright and contracts or working with friends. With its emphasis on the power of inclusivity, diversity, and celebrating the differences that unite, &Company provides an energetic and highly stimulating place to connect, learn, grow, and work through the challenges that women experience in pursuing their passions and dreams.
