The deadline for abstracts is coming up!  

Please note that the abstract submission process will be a little different this year than it has been in recent years.  If you would like to be considered for a presentation, panel, workshop or spot in the Techniques Showcase, please fill out the form here and upload your abstract.  Abstracts are due by February 28, 2019.  

Are you willing to share your expertise and experience with your peers?  The 2018 GNSI Annual Conference is July 15-21, in Washington, DC. Planning is well underway. If you are interested in giving a talk, present at the Technique Showcase or teach a workshop - please fill out the form!

We may not be able to accommodate all speakers but will try.

From time to time GNSI is asked to review books that relate to science illustration. We are looking to compile a list of people to contact to conduct these reviews. What’s the catch? You need to read the book and write up your review for the Journal and the web in a timely fashion, but you get to keep the book(s) for your library! 

We have general guidelines for reviews. If you have time to read a book thoughtfully, and feel comfortable writing up your thoughts, we’d appreciate that you add your name to the list. We’ll then assign books as they come in. We will try to connect books with volunteers’ areas of interest; otherwise, we’ll do random selection so everyone has a chance to review. Please contact Gail directly at [email protected], and let her know your particular area of expertise or interest (botanical, zoological, paleo, art education, general illustration, or ...???)

The JNSI editorial staff could use some assistance gathering special topic articles and ongoing help with article collection!

The Guild of Natural Science Illustrators is proud to announce that we can now take offers for Presentations and Workshops at the 2013 Annual Conference directly on the web. Thanks to Board member Ikumi Kayama, we now have a sophisticated submission form that should cover all the bases in preparing you to participate in the Conference. Workshops, short and long presentations, panel discussions, and more!  Soon we hope to have the Exhibit submission forms online as well.

Consider joining us in Bar Harbor, Maine, July 7-13, 2013 and share your knowledge with an enthusiastic group of artists.
