Junebug Ink Is Headed to Stationery Fest 2026—And We Can't Wait to Meet You!
There are some events you circle on your calendar because you know they're going to be special. For us, Stationery Fest 2026 is one of them.
We're thrilled to announce that Junebug Ink will be participating in Stationery Fest for the very first time, taking place Thursday, July 30, Friday, July 31, and Saturday, August 1, 2026. We couldn't be more excited to be part of New York's largest celebration of stationery, creativity, storytelling, and community.
Whether you're a lifelong stationery lover, an avid greeting card collector, a gift buyer, a retailer searching for fresh products, or someone who simply appreciates beautiful design with meaningful stories, we hope you'll stop by our booth (H-12) and say hello. We can't wait to meet new friends, reconnect with longtime customers, introduce ourselves to retailers, and spend three inspiring days surrounded by people who believe—just like we do—that the written word still matters.
Why Stationery Fest Is Oh So Very Special
Stationery Fest has quickly become one of the most anticipated paper and gift events in the country. Bringing together independent makers, international stationery brands, artists, and creative entrepreneurs, the festival is much more than a shopping event.
It's a place to discover new brands, participate in hands-on workshops, experience live demonstrations, learn directly from creators, and celebrate the joy of writing, journaling, card giving, and thoughtful communication.
Founded by the team behind Brooklyn's Yoseka Stationery, Stationery Fest was created to build community around creativity. Their vision is simple yet powerful: connect people through stationery while giving visitors an opportunity to learn about the inspiration, craftsmanship, and stories behind the products they love.
As a company built on storytelling, that mission feels perfectly aligned with ours.
Why Junebug Ink Is Different
At Junebug Ink, we like to say we create cards with content.
Every greeting card begins with a story. Sometimes it's inspired by family traditions. Sometimes it's rooted in Black American culture. Other times it's sparked by food, music, history, or shared memories that make us smile.
Our goal has always been to create luxury greeting cards that help people celebrate life's meaningful moments while reflecting the richness, beauty, humor, and traditions of everyday life.
Many of our cards go beyond a simple greeting by including recipes, playlists, cultural notes, or historical context inside the card. We want every card to become a keepsake—something people save, display, and remember long after it's first opened. That's what makes Junebug Ink a little different. We don't just sell greeting cards. We tell stories.

An Exclusive Debut: Enchanted New York
We're especially excited to unveil something we've been quietly working on behind the scenes.
In honor of this year's Stationery Fest theme, Enchanted New York, Junebug Ink is proud to debut an exclusive collaboration with acclaimed contemporary artist Gavin Benjamin.
Introducing the Enchanted New York Limited Edition Boxed Note Card Collection.
This beautifully curated boxed set celebrates the magic, creativity, elegance, and cultural richness of New York through Gavin Benjamin's distinctive artistic vision paired with Junebug Ink's commitment to exceptional paper goods.
Even more exciting?
This collection will be available exclusively at Stationery Fest.
That's right.
The Enchanted New York boxed note card set is a limited-edition release created specifically for the festival. Quantities are limited, and once they're gone, they're gone.
If you're attending Stationery Fest, you'll have the first—and only—opportunity to purchase this exclusive collaboration.
We're incredibly proud of what we've created together, and we cannot wait to share it with you.
Meet the People Behind the Brand
One of our favorite parts of participating in events like Stationery Fest is the opportunity to meet customers face-to-face.
Shopping online is convenient, but nothing compares to hearing the stories behind why someone buys a particular card, learning about family traditions, or helping someone find exactly the right sentiment for an important occasion.
We also love connecting with retailers, museum gift shop buyers, fellow makers, artists, and other creative entrepreneurs.
These conversations often spark new ideas, future collaborations, and lasting friendships.
If you've been following Junebug Ink online, this is the perfect opportunity to introduce yourself. We'd love to hear your favorite card-giving memories, learn what products you'd like to see next, and simply thank you for supporting our small business.
Retailers, We'd Love to Meet You
If you own a gift shop, museum store, boutique, bookstore, lifestyle shop, or specialty retailer, please stop by our booth, H-12.
Junebug Ink proudly partners with retailers who value meaningful storytelling, premium quality, and products that celebrate culture with authenticity and joy.
We'll be happy to introduce you to our wholesale collection, answer questions about our products, and explore how Junebug Ink might be a great addition to your store.
Some of our retail partners have discovered us at trade shows, while others first met us at consumer events just like this one.
You never know where a conversation might lead.
Let's Celebrate Creativity Together
There's something wonderfully hopeful about stationery.
A blank card becomes a birthday wish.
A handwritten note becomes an expression of gratitude.
A simple message becomes a memory someone treasures for years.
That's why events like Stationery Fest matter. They remind us that creativity still brings people together and that thoughtful communication never goes out of style.
We're honored to be joining an extraordinary community of artists, makers, and stationery enthusiasts who share that belief.
