Calling new panelists

Are you or a colleague interested in serving as a peer review panelist? Minigrants are reviewed each cycle by a volunteer panel of arts and cultural specialists representing a diverse cross section of disciplines, communities and backgrounds. We also seek to seat several new panelists with each round. The Round 1 review session for FY2020 grants will be held in late August. Want to learn more? Contact  Mary Gillett, Regrant Coordinator at arts@nwmiarts.net.


PR Tools: Season Ad, Tools 

 
Regional promotion and advocacy for arts and culture is one of the network's key goals. Moving forward we hope to build greater awareness of the network and each other through stronger media relations, cross promotion and community support throughout Northwest Michigan. We are building the www.nwmiarts.org website to include tools and shareable resources. We also welcome your ideas, suggestions and experiences.

This will continue to grow over the next two months. Here what is currently available:
  • Advocate page at www.nwmiarts.net with links and downloads, to find elected officials, craft elevator speeches, Americans for the Arts' pARTnership resources and its Arts and Social Impact Explorer.
  • Network logos and downloadable images will be added to the Resource page during the next two weeks, for use on your own sites and PR. 
  • Printed rack cards are available
  • Camera ready print ad layouts are available for use in upcoming season programs and cross promotion. Links to participating organizations will be highlighted on the network website. Those interested should send program specs to arts@nwmiarts.net as soon as possible. Ad layout with color and black and white options will be available August 7.
Volunteer? We need your help to build the network and strengthen our connections through the 10-county region. Commitment can easily be tailored to fit availability and interests. Interested? Questions? Suggestions?  Contact arts@nwmiarts.net
