The Jargon Society, founded in 1951 by Jonathan Williams, is a highly significant small-press publisher based in Scaly Mountain, NC. Known for its collaboration and unique aesthetic sensibility, Jargon has published a wide range of titles, including poetry, photography, and art, often pairing artists and writers in innovative ways.
With a publishing philosophy that champions outsiders and under-recognized artists, Jargon has provided a platform for writers and poets who pursue a singular path in their work. The society's publications, beautifully designed and printed, have garnered a dedicated following and include rare and valuable titles sought after by collectors. Now under the auspices of the Black Mountain College Museum Arts Center, the Jargon Society continues to honor its founder's vision and mission.
