I'd like to write a good review for this publication but since I have yet to receive it, I can't. I ordered it on June 11th and here it is a month later and I still don't have it.
Live and learn,

I have discovered that Art Calendar is an excellent resource for working artists. The articles are informative and give practical advice for those who want to expand their careers, network, or improve their chosen techniques. Perusing page after page of listings in the back also allows the reader to broaden their scope of opportunities for grants, fellowships, residencies, and exhibit opportunities. I highly recommend this magazine to every artist, not matter what your medium is.

As of January 10th I still have not received an issue of this magazine. Supposedly the first issue was sent to me way back in October. I have contacted Amazon for help, but have not received a refund or a magazine. If this matter is not resolved I will NEVER order another thing from Amazon. Amazon should NOT sell magazines from unreliable companies.

I once subscribed to this magazine for several years through regular mail and loved it, but got extremely frustrated after switching to the E-mail subscription...regular mail just took too long (many deadlines passed by the time it got there) and the E-mail subscription was cheaper. But on E-mail, issues did not come through regularly - I have absolutely no problem with any other on-line services (and never did - I do not have a kick-back/kick-out function under my E-mail system). Sometimes I had to contact them and it would come through quickly, other times it just did not make it...
They also changed the way the listings were done - before ALL listings were done by state, but then the listings were split out by a type of "under $25" (I think that is the dollar amount) entry fee which was still arranged by state and another category of "over $25", but the "over $25" were mish-mashed with no order in the "over $25" listings...maybe that has changed, I do not know...
The articles ARE good for a beginning artist - I went through a development process that got me up to speed quickly on the most critical points (ie, as mentioned below with legal issues and doing slides of artwork) to where I was flash-reading the articles to see if I could see anything new as I developed my career...I ended up using books that contained more detailed information(through this Amaz website, of course!)...
With that all said, I did like the magazine when I first got it and it went smoothly for a year or so, but with the Email complications and then the entry level break-out, they switched me back to regular mail and I just sort of gave up...because the regular mail receipts became erratic also..
I MIGHT try the listings again, but am going to be careful as I have found the free online service of ArtShow to be just about as good with its listings arranged by entry deadline...I never did a comparison between Art Magazine and ArtShow - someone else might like to do that...
I did not know the business was being sold (but I did notice the Art Calendar web-site was not working once I got here), so I will pick up two or three issues at the magazine racks in the future before making my decision to re-subscribe or not...
Building your art resume? Here's a terrific resource. October 9, 2006

This is my favorite - most helpful - resource for finding out about reputable art shows, grants, calls for art proposals, artist residencies, and more. And yes, there are even articles on marketing and promoting your artwork.
Only reputable shows are listed. Shows are organized by state. And there are special sections within the show listings, including a section for "no fee" shows.
I strongly recommend this monthly magazine if you're serious about showing your work.
