Greetings!
I hope you have been seeing our buses and billboards all around town, as well as seeing and hearing our PSAs on Capitol Public Radio, six Entercom stations, and local television. This is the 3rd year of our arts marketing campaign, designed to raise the visibility of the arts. Through it we have promoted our online events calendar, Sacramento365.com, launched Arts. Open October (now Artober) and beautified buses so much that the ads stay up for months on end.
The Arts are truly Open Daily! Here are some photos for you to enjoy...

Thanks to the 40 people who attended our ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM SERIES today on the future of classical performing arts organizations. It was great to see so many people ready to take on tough subjects. We will post notes from the session and a corresponding research document within the week. We are also planning a Part 2 to this critical conversation.
Don't forget that Where's the Money continues with Social Media and Fundraising for the Arts, Part 1: "Teeing Up" Your Fund Development Efforts Using Social Media on Friday, May 18, 2012, 10am-12pm at the Nonprofit Resource Center, 1331 Garden Highway.
