iTowns – Hartford
Courant – Looking for Artwork
The
Courant (and its web site, courant.com) is developing a new online community news section and Sunday tabloid called iTowns
(http://www.courant.com/community/news/en/), and we plan to feature the work of local artists on the print cover. This "community canvas," as we are
calling it, will showcase paintings, drawings, photography and more.
We
are enthused about the possibilities and welcome your involvement. If you have
local artwork that you would like for us to consider publishing, you can send it to us as a digital jpeg file to the email
address below. Works published on our covers will also be posted in an online "gallery" for an indefinite period, along with
artist information and links to art association sites, if available.
If
you have questions or want to learn more, please call. And thanks in advance for considering being a part of this exciting
new project.

Cultural Heritage Art Program
Serving Connecticut’s traditional artists and their communities
The

the rich diversity of Connecticut’s ethnic and occupational

and pass on their unique cultural knowledge. Our public projects enhance understanding of the artists, art forms, histories,
values, and sense of place that define Connecticut and its
communities. For more information visit www.ctheritagearts.org
