Hope your new year is off to a great start! It's been wonderful seeing all your event-updates rolling in. Our website is busy with event goers, vendors, artists, and folks looking for events to attend and apply to!  We're excited to announce a couple of awesome additions to the extensive event details we collect in an effort to improve Search Engine Optimization and visitor experience!

Now Include Event FAQs and Link to Tickets

We have added a new section to our event forms! Choose from Frequently Asked Questions about your event. Provide quick insight into your event with Q&A like is your event handicap accessible, are there ATMs on site, and Is your event pet-friendly or service-animal only? You can write in your own Q and A as well!

This new function is very "SEO-friendly", coded in such a way for Google to be able to provide these kinds of answers when folks search on these questions! So, it's a great value to your event listing on our website and the people interested in your event.

 

Also, if your event is ticketed, you may now include the direct link your ticketing page!

*February 1st is the first of our event applications' deadlines. We do accept applications after deadlines for waiting list consideration, however late applications are considered after the selection process has occurred and event participants are chosen. If your work is a good fit for your requested event and space remains available in your medium, your work will be accepted, otherwise it will be considered for the waiting list.

We're optimistic about 2022

We've navigated almost two years of Covid and as of today we feel optimistic about moving forward with events. The vaccine and boosters are widely available. We know that properly wearing masks (K-N95s and N-95s are currently the suggested versions for best protection), hand washing/hand sanitizer and giving each other space helps to keep the virus from spreading. Most importantly we know to stay home if we're feeling sick. We can "live with the virus" if we work together to protect each other. We've missed the energy of the shows, seeing our old friends and meeting new ones! Looking forward to getting together safely and to a very happy, healthy and successful 2022! 

Sincerely,


Dana and Troy Hale-Mounier, Directors
