ARI’S A-LIST OF FREE-TO-LIST-YOUR EVENT SITES
- Fecalface
- Squid List
- UpComing
- Happenstand
- FaceBook Their ad system is great for getting the word out inexpensively and very geo-targeted.
- ArtSpan sends out a nice monthly newsletter. I think they will list events by anyone who has participated in Open Studios.
- SFAQ online
I have also used Eventful, SF Station & SF Arts
LOCAL PAPERS
- The City Star SF
- SF Bay Guardian 8 days a week
- Chronicle (Pink, daily Datebook and SFGate) – how to submit listings
- Examiner (used to have “Submit an Article” but no longer)
LOCAL SF BLOGS ABOUT ART
- ArtBusiness Alan Bamberger has an amazing archive of SF Art Openings with photos and comments. Sometimes this is the only place to find out about local artists who don’t have their own sites.
- Emma Krasov’s “Art and Entertain Me” blog. Here’s an entry about my show.
- Noah Beil
- Not for fun only
