collaboration opportunities

Want to collaborate?

No Covers is built on community. We’re always looking to connect with local creatives, storytellers, and organizations who want to be part of something meaningful in Lakeland and the surrounding areas. If you’re passionate about inclusive stories and bringing people together, we’d love to collaborate.

Local Artists

We love showcasing local talent. If you’re an artist, illustrator, or creative, No Covers offers space to share your work in a way that feels intentional and community-driven. From featured displays to collaborative events, we’re always open to highlighting art that reflects diverse voices and experiences.

When reviewing artists work our team looks for design that will appeal to our current audience, uniqueness of design concept, and variety in art mediums. If you think your artwork meets this criteria and will add value to our shelves, we would love for you to continue with the request form to tell us more….

Local Authors

If you’re a local author, we’d love to work with you. No Covers is a place for stories, and that includes yours. We’re open to hosting book signings, readings, launches, and casual meet-and-greets that help you connect directly with readers.

When reviewing each book our team looks for content that will appeal to our current audience, overall quality appearance of the book, and price point that aligns with our unique business model. If you think your book meets this criteria and will add value to our shelves, we would love for you to continue with the request form to tell us more….
