Published on 16/01/2023
Last year was a wonderful year for our agencies! They worked on so many fantastic projects, from books to clothing, to tarot cards, and more. As we look ahead to 2023, we wanted to wrap up 2022 with some of the agency’s most memorable projects. It’s not easy narrowing it down, but here are Advocate Art’s West Cost Manager, Atlanta Japp’s most memorable projects of 2022.

2. FGTEEV The Switcheroo Rescue

“This title is the third book in the series, so I have really enjoyed working with Miguel on it because we get to see how the story and characters grow together.”
3. STOMP!
