Arts e-Billboard

About the Winnipeg Arts e-Billboard

The Winnipeg Arts e-Billboard is a subscription-based, free service provided by the Winnipeg Arts Council, and is distributed by email every Thursday to approximately 2100 people. The e-Billboard contains events, opportunities and significant news items of interest to both the general public and members of the local arts community. Anyone can subscribe on-line through our website homepage at http://www.winnipegarts.ca.

The most current e-Billboard digest is also available at all times by visiting http://www.winnipegarts.ca/index.php?/e-billboard/, no subscription needed. Our website now includes an Arts Events Calendar which plots, where appropriate, e-Billboard events in an easy-to-navigate calendar format.

Inclusion in the Winnipeg Arts e-Billboard and/or Arts Events Calendar should not be construed as an endorsement of any given event or opportunity by the Winnipeg Arts Council. For more information about a listing, please contact the associated organization or individual directly. The Winnipeg Arts Council is not responsible for the content of external Internet sites.

How to Submit a Listing for the Winnipeg Arts e-Billboard

If you would like to submit an event listing, news item, call-for-submission, or professional opportunity for consideration, please send it to billboard@winnipegarts.ca by 5:00 p.m. Wednesday for inclusion in the following day's e-Billboard. If applicable, event listings will be plotted in our Arts Events Calendar, also available on our website.

Listings only need to be submitted once, and will be included in the e-Billboard until the event concludes or the deadline passes; listings that do not have an associated end-date will be included in the e-Billboard for two weeks. Please indicate "Name or Org, subject of the post" in the subject line of your e-mail.

Text should be submitted in the body of an email, or attached as a Word document. Please do not submit tables, digests, or submission/application forms. The Winnipeg Arts Council reserves the right to edit submissions for length and suitability. Please feel free to include a URL that links to further information about your listing. Due to the high volume of items included, the e-Billboard cannot support images.

For efficiency and continuity, please clearly include the following in your submission:

• The Organization involved
• The Group / Artist involved, if applicable
• The Title of the event, news item, call, or professional opportunity
• The dates involved (i.e. start, end, deadline, reception)
