Supporting The Arts & Arts Councils Everywhere

Volume 5 No. | March 24, 2023 calendar

Notes from the Editor:

The company that hosts the Arts Blast mailings has notified customers of an unscheduled priority maintenance, so this week's Arts Blast will have to go out tomorrow, assuming Constant Contact has remedied the problem by then.

There's so much to do that you really must go to willimiller.com and check the Arts Blast calendar. As soon as I get the all clear, I'll send out the regular Arts Blast.

Please support small, local businesses. Arts Blast is one of them, so if you have an event coming up, or something artsy to sell or teach, consider advertising it in Arts Blast!
