An art gallery showing can run for months.
Opening night is an event. A book can sell for years
Autograph signings by the author are an event.

These days, the arts are big business.
Events which publicize the arts look like show biz.
Everybody loves a show, so put on a grand performance.
Call it an event, invite friends and family. Invite the media.
When your event makes news headlines on television & press
You know you've organized a successful event.

Once upon a time, not so long ago
I visited our Capital City where I heard musicians
complaining how local radio doesn't play local music.

I talked to club owners and made a concert calendar,
for all the clubs together, maybe 100 events around town
printed a monthly schedule & titled the flyer with a big
Announcement: August is Capital City Music Month.

The media reported Capital City Music Month as a news item.
We followed up with radio stations asking them to play local music
on Capital City Music Day, which we announced was August 30.
Three stations broadcast Top Ten Shows with local music
simply because we said it was Capital City Music Day.
Alanis was voted favorite local artist of the year.

It's amazing what can be done with a $100 publicity budget
and free time when you're feeling creative between gigs.
Just imagine what can be done with bigger budgets.
