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.
