Promoting Art Events And Classes in Montana (6/25/2007)
Recieve our newsletters by email
I received a few emails in the last couple of weeks from people interested in art workshops. Specifically; private instruction, classes, college accreditation, etc. In most cases, they had searched on the internet for Montana art classes, Montana art events, etc, and found this web site. When they got here, they weren't able to find any new information about what they were looking for. This is something I'd like to fix, but I need your help.
I've tried to populate our calendar of events myself, but it apparently hasn't been good enough for visitors to our site. The more I've thought about it I realized I may not have emphasized the use of the Calendar of Events to you the Artists, Gallery Owners and Art Museum Curators. So please consider this your official invitation to post events to our Calendar.
What kind of events should be posted? Well, I guess any art related event that is open to the public, whether its' free or paid. Classes, workshops, gallery nights, receptions, art auctions, art walks, etc.
Why should you list your events here? In March 2007, the Montana-Artists.com web site surpassed LivelyTimes.com (The Montana Arts Councils vehicle for arts event promotion) for total number of monthly web site visitors, as well as overall page views. Since then, we've widened the gap, and now get nearly twice as many unique visitors, and nearly three times as many page views. When people are looking for art events in Montana, it appears we are the number one stop.
If you have any questions or comments, please post them to this article, and I'll reply to them as quickly as I can.
With Regards,
Branden
Comments:| 1. | Jerry Simchuk | 6/25/2007 3:56:45 PM MST | Is it only acceptable to allow classes that are tought within Montana or can I post all classes/workshops/seminars that I'm doing both inside the state and outside? Most of my classes I'm teaching are outside the state.
Thanks, Jerry...

Though the web site is dedicated to Montana Arts, please feel free to publish your events regardless of where they take place. They won't show up on the main calendar page, but they will show up on your listing page.
With Regards,
