about

Mission
Since 1974 Small Press Traffic (SPT) has been at the heart of the San Francisco Bay Area innovative writing scene, bringing together independent readers, writers, and presses through publications, conferences, talks, and our influential reading series. Small Press Traffic Literary Arts Center promotes and supports writers from all over the globe—particularly those who push the limits of how we speak and think about the world. Kindly and graciously housed at the California College of the Arts, we remain autonomous and thus depend upon outside funding for our operating expenses.

If independent writing is important to you, please consider making a donation or becoming a member. Thank you.
