Kootenay Festivals and Events Brochure 2011-12

Book your listing by March 17 if you want your festival, community event, exhibition, concert, workshop, etc. listed in the 2011 Kootenay Festivals & Events Brochure.

10,000 copies of this brochure will be mailed to approx 300 public outlets such as: Chambers of Commerce, hotel resorts, festivals, cafes, bookstores and arts councils around the Columbia Basin as well as to Tourist Info Centres from the Alberta Rockies to the BC Coast. We receive great response to the Kootenay Festivals and Events Brochure, and we continue to fulfill requests for copies throughout the year.

  • The information is also sent to media (Canada and U.S.) for use in their events listings (Selkirk Loop, Backpackers News and the North Columbia Monthly have utilized the listings in past years).
     
  • The 2011 brochure will include events from May 2011-April 2012. The brochure will list festivals and events within the Kootenays, and will be listed by the date of the event.
     
  • The cost for listing your festival or event is $75.00 per event/listing. The $75.00 is to offset costs for printing and distribution (which has increased this year…) and is a great deal for the coverage it provides as it is subsidized by funding from the West Kootenay Regional Arts Council and the Province of British Columbia through the BC Arts Council.
     
  • Each listing includes: name of event; date; community; brief description (maximum 20 words); contact phone number and/or website
     
  • The information you send us about your event for the brochure is also uploaded to the CKCA website (www.basinculture.com) and the West Kootenay Regional Arts Council website (www.wkartscouncil.com). Art, culture and heritage listings are also used in the cultural magazine, ARTiculate.
     
  • The 2011 Kootenay Festivals and Events Brochure will be distributed mid April, 2011. To see last year’s brochure, click on link above.
