Pretty stumped on how this sentence should look. It just seems like too much punctuation. This is regarding topics for talks at a conference. Thanks!
Topics will include: “Tools of the Trade”, “Making Your Own Tools”, “Industrial Clay: Content and Use”, “How We Finish a Surface”, and “Using Industrial Clay to Cast Molds”.

Assuming you are in the US by the use of double quotation marks, style dictates that commas and periods go inside closing quotes. Otherwise, your sentence is fine as is: Topics will include: “Tools of the Trade,” “Making Your Own Tools,” “Industrial Clay: Content and Use,” “How We Finish a Surface,” and “Using Industrial Clay to Cast Molds.” The Chicago Manual of Style does recommend the use of quotation marks, not italics.

There is no single right answer, as such questions are largely a matter of style. Adhere to the discipline of your editor, publication, or organization, or in the absence of a house style, adopt a style manual suitable to your audience and tastes and be consistent in its application.

What's bothering you? The commas? The quotation marks? The capitalization?

You could convert it into a bulleted list.
Topics will include:
- Tools of the Trade
- Making Your Own Tools
- Industrial Clay: Content and Use
- How We Finish a Surface
- Using Industrial Clay to Cast Molds
This might make subsequently enlarging on each topic a bit easier.
