Our Story

We don’t just publish stories—we unearth them, reshape them, and build systems that help them land where they’re meant to go.

At Rude Up Art, we believe that every publication is more than just pages and words—it’s an experience. Whether it’s a handbook, workbook, zine, or thought leadership piece, the way a story is structured and designed shapes how it is understood, remembered, and acted upon.

Founded on the belief that stories should be as engaging as they are meaningful, Rude Up Art blends narrative strategy, information architecture, and user experience principles to create seamless, impactful publications.

From nonprofits shaping social change to corporate teams enhancing internal engagement to creative entrepreneurs bringing their vision to life, we partner with organizations, creators, and businesses to craft content that resonates.

“I didn’t start Rude Up Art to publish books. I started it to reclaim story. To make space for weird, raw, beautiful, often-unfinished narratives that don’t fit in polite company or clean categories.

I love comics, zines, workbooks, systems disguised as art, art disguised as healing, the weird, the sacred, and the inconvenient.

If you’re here, maybe you do too.”

— Jacquelyn, Founder & CEO of Rude Up Art
