SEPTEMBER 1, 
2015
Greetings!
 
Surprise--it's true! Art Jewelry Forum has a brand new website. It is a clean, clearly organized space to browse the unlimited wealth of images and original content that makes up AJF. It's like a really cool library about jewelry, open to the public and free of charge. We are pretty excited about it, and we hope you are too.

While it was being built, we had to slow down publication, so this newsletter is a little light, but it gives you time to explore the new website. We'll get back to our regular schedule of publishing fresh, original content three to five times a week right away. 

Xo,



PS--AJF's website is free to all, BUT if you support our efforts, we'll send you the 2015 limited-edition LEGO� pin by emiko oye ... you can't get that at a brick-and-mortar library!

PPS--The redesign is the result of a one-year effort led by AJF's board of directors under the direction of AJF's manager, now executive director, Rebekah Frank. The site designer is Christine Cooney of ccdesigns. Technical support and development is provided by Trellon, LLC
