We did it!
Thank you to all of our donors!! We have officially closed our crowdfunding campaign with a bang! We surpassed our initial goal of $30,000, allowing us to make some of the big “hope to’s” of the project become a reality much sooner. This additional support helps to put maps in more locations, and in the hands of more people, and create a broader reach with the interactive website. Many thanks to ALL who supported us along the way–whether with a share, a donation, or positive words about the project. We love that this campaign allowed so many people to learn about and support this powerful, collaborative work in our region. Now we move on to the final stretch in completing the project!
Things are getting quite busy as we round the corner toward completion of the paper map…
• The Arts Atlas map and brochure are in the final stages of illustration and design, and will be going to print in late July. The map looks AMAZING! We can’t wait to get it into your hands so you can begin to explore the greater Sunapee Region through an artistic lens. We are thrilled that this is truly a local project—illustrated by local artist Dana Saulnier, and the maps will also be printed locally by RC Brayshaw!
• We just received a beautiful new logo from the creative team at Center for Community GIS, and we could not be happier with how it turned out! The team at CCGIS will now shift efforts to setting up our new interactive website—with a planned launch in late fall of this year.
• A map launch party is planned to celebrate the completion of the project on August 18th! Core partners, donors, and all those who have worked tirelessly on the Arts Atlas will celebrate this milestone and get a first look at the maps.
• Maps will be distributed around the region following the launch party. Be on the lookout for copies at a location near you in mid to late August!
• The core team will work to catalogue the hundreds of destinations, artist listings and cultural events that will be featured on the interactive website and begin entering the tremendous amount of data on the back end of the website.Thank you again for helping to amplify the arts through the Sunapee Region Arts Atlas! We look forward to updating you soon.
