Portfolio Showcase 2026!

Portfolio Showcase 2026!

With over 100 portfolios submitted, the Industry Night was buzzing. This being my third year attending, each year the quality of work has grown and grown! Such beautiful art by amazingly talented artist! Publishing professionals came together to review all of the work and it was fun to be a fly on the wall! They were rave reviews!

Early that day, the artist dropped off their portfolio to be judged, to be announced tomorrow, so stay tuned BUT this year SCBWI has introduced a new feature... 

Award-Winning Writing Showcase Winners— in the flesh!

Having been digital in the past, this year, SCBWI wanted to move to a more tactical way to experience writer's work. Each winner had a spread with all their information, loglines, writing samples, etc. It was available for attendees to browse and is a great way to showcase our writers, not only illustrators. 
We are looking forward to a weekend of fun, connection and growth! Follow along all weekend with our awesome Team Blog!
Can't make it to the In-Person Winter Conference in New York City, join us online at the Virtual Winter Conference featuring inspirational talks, industry panels and deep-dive Creative Labs, taking place in February of 2026. Videos of all sessions are available to watch for approximately 30 days after the event.
