yswilce reminds us that SFWAns are enjoined to cast their votes for Nebula Nominations, which close tonight at midnight, Dec. 31st. But even if you're not in SFWA, you have a chance to make a difference in the arts this year by Dec. 31st by joining the Interstitial Arts Foundation. $25 makes you a member (or renews your membership), and gets your name up on our Friends of IAF list with a link to your blog or homepage if you like.
Yeah, I know, it's that time again: worthy causes all asking for your financial support, as we try to balance our books for 2007 - with the added incentive of a tax deduction . . . You'll thank me in April! And consider all that the IAF has accomplished in 2007:
* Publication of Interfictions: An Anthology of Interstitial Writing. “A phenomenal collection . . . engrossing and provocative!” – Hipster Bookclub. . . “Belongs on the nightstand of anyone interested in the development of contemporary short fiction.” – Michael Bishop, Atlanta Journal-Constitution
* Two Interstitial Salons, hosted by intrepid members of the IAF board of directors on our Discussion Board.
* The Interfictions blog posted five monthly podcasts
* Four new IAF banners for your blog/website
* Organized two Interstitial panels at New York's MoCCA (Museum of Comics and Cartoon Art) lecture series
* Events and panels at Readercon, Worldcon, and WisCon, and appearances at national juried crafts & art shows, and Sponsored interstitial readings across the US
* Featured in a 12-page color spread in Faerie Magazine
* Submitted grant proposals for the first big Interstitial Art show
We see the IAF as a powerful engine for change in the way that the world categorizes and consumes all sorts of art - and for connecting and encouraging those who "color outside the lines." But to continue doing that, we need your help. If interstitial art is important to you, please make a donation today, and help the IAF keep that idea alive. Please consider your IAF Friend-ship right now by making a new donation via Click&Pledge on our website.
