A little lightbulb went off in my head today. A co-worker of mine who happens to be another artist trapped in a 9-5 (she's a dancer/choreographer mascarading as our IT director) handed me a postcard announcing an upcoming performance. I told her I'd talk it up, meaning promote it here. Then the light flickered.
You see that side blog over to the right and down. The one marked Datebook. I've never quite known what to put there. In the past it has been a catchall for notable comings and goings, celebrity deaths, commemorations, etc. But it doesn't get updated nearly enough because I can't quite think of what to put there. But now I have an idea.
It seems there are always people trying to promote their events. Sooo, why not create a space for them to do it here?
Got an event you want folks to know about? Send an email to Bernie@bernardjtarver.com. Include the name of the event, sponsoring organization, date and time, location, admission fees if any, as well as any links to websites. Get it to me at least two weeks prior to the event.
Now it would help if the event were in the NYC area, but I will consider listings from other geographical regions. And I do mean consider. Just because you send something doesn't automatically mean it will get in (this is still my blog after all). But if it seems interesting enough, I'll post it. All submissions will be subject to editing.
You know I am partial to the arts, social causes of a progressive nature (I do not support anything right wing), health, education, or anything and everything that might seem fun or interesting to a wide range of folks.
Send 'em if you got 'em. I'll hope to update the space in coming days.

Sounds like a good idea... I may need you to promote my birthday when that comes around... I could use the gifts...
