Deadline Update & Community Events

By Editor · December 2nd, 2014

Hi readers and advertisers,

We’re over here on the other side of your screen working furiously on our January 2015 edition. If you’re interested in getting in on that, be sure to contact us ASAP. The deadline has officially passed, but we’re still in production mode!

If you’ve got any community events coming up that are of special interest to the Lansing or Michigan Latino community, please let us know! The Community Events Calendar will return next week, as I (Allena) am leaving shortly to the UAE to meet with a publishing client in Dubai (and then spending a touristy layover “tour” in Munich on the way back). So, I’ll get back to it next week. But, feel free to email Allena@GardenWallPublications.com, or post them to our Facebook page in the meantime!

Weekly Event Update- Early!

By Editor · October 16th, 2014

Hello readers,

I’m posting the event update early this week as I’m going on a long weekend with my family :} I’ll be training with one of my clients in Manhattan on Saturday and enjoying the sights of NYC the rest of the time. I plan on eating “train tamales” (tamales from the street vendors in Queens- can’t be beat) and taking my kiddos to the Museo Del Barrio for their Dia de los Muertos programming. Hope you have a great weekend, too. ~Allena

Next Edition Information, Theme, Deadline

By Editor · October 14th, 2014

Next Issue Information

Submission deadline: We’re asking for submissions to come to us by November 21, 2014, if not before. We ask this so that our small staff can produce the issue in time to enjoy the holiday season.

Distribution: The next edition will print in time for distribution at events and celebrations focusing on Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., as we commemorate his legacy on January 19, 2015. It will be circulated in January, February and early March, 2015.

Special Events: We will publish in time for MLK day. In addition, please note that this issue will distribute immediately prior to César E. Chávez day in March, should you wish to inform the public of any related community events.

 

Theme

The January, 2015 issue will again carry extensive content from a partnership with Michigan State University, with the theme being COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT. In addition, we hope to see information on how YOU or your group will be engaging the community, specifically in the tradition of César E. Chávez. However, as usual, the theme is only a suggestion, and we encourage advertisers and contributors to produce content that is most useful to you.

 

Submission

Please provide ready-to-print work via PDF or native format by November 21 to publisher Dr. Rodriguez at rodri231@msu.edu or Managing Editor Allena Tapia of GardenWall Publications at allena@gardenwallpublications.com. Ad prices  remain unchanged and can be found online at www.AdelanteForward.com. In addition, a full advertisers kit with sizes, prices, tips and information is available, too.
