Artsource 2012 is Coming

Dear Supporters of the Arts:

You are invited to participate again in the only guide to the visual and performing arts of Loveland – Loveland Artsource.  The fourth annual edition of this beautiful, full-color guide is planned to be 32 pages. Produced by the Downtown Loveland Association, its purpose is marketing our town as one of the best arts communities in the country and increasing our number of visitors from outside Loveland - ideally, beyond Colorado.

Here’s why YOU need to be in Loveland Artsource:
  • Exposure for you or your organization in 15,000 guides, printed by May 2012
  • Distributed throughout the entire state at all 10 Colorado Welcome Centers
  • Additional distribution by the Downtown Loveland Association and the Loveland Chamber of Commerce
  • The guide may be handed out during the prestigious Governor’s Invitational Art Show at the Loveland Museum Gallery, which draws visitors from all over
  • The entire Loveland Artsource will be visible on the web site of the Downtown Loveland Association
  • The arts guide will be linked to on the web sites of the Loveland Chamber of Commerce, Engaging Loveland, Office of Creative Sector Development and that of the City of Loveland

Promote yourself, support the arts in Loveland and help attract tourism dollars when you advertise in the 2012 issue of Loveland Artsource.  You’re also helping the nonprofit Downtown Loveland Association to continue its work revitalizing the heart of Loveland.

The attached contract describes your options for space in this elegant guide to the arts. Please indicate your interest in an ad by filling out the contract. Payments can be made now or later, by February 14, 2012 at the latest. We are happy to come to your place of business to answer your questions and/or pick up the contract and payment.
