COMMUNITY ANNOUNCEMENTS

Do you have an announcement to share with the ARTWIFE community? As we continue to seek, create, and cultivate ways to stay connected outside of social media, we invite you to promote your literary & arts events and news in the Community Announcements section of our monthly newsletter.

Use the form below to share details about your exhibits, openings, festivals, classes, readings, job postings, etc. Both digital and in-person news is welcome. If your event is time-bound, keep in mind that the newsletter goes out one time around the middle of each month.
