Creative Nelson is a FREE quarterly eMagazine FOR the creative people of Nelson ABOUT the creative people of Nelson! Issue #1 Launch 1/7/17.
I need your help to cover the costs of creating and launching the 1st ever issue! This is your opportunity to be a part of this exciting venture. You can even have your name on our supporters page in the eMagazine!
The initial costs to be covered are a once off, with future editions only being $500-$600 to partially cover the many hours of work involved in putting it all together.
Creative Nelson is created and produced in its entirety by me, Amanda Sears from Studio S in my spare time. (Juggling my own design and marketing business and part time work!)
There is a lot of work involved in designing, promoting and creating content for an eMagazine.
I am interviewing everyone in person, at their work space (which is super exciting!)
All funds raised above and beyond $1000 will go towards local community art space: Community Art Works.
*This is a not for profit or commercial project - the goal is to grow awareness of the region's creative talent from youth to professional and everyone in between while offering tips and advice to aid and support each other. Normally magazines are funded through their paid advertising but we want this to be a commercial free publication and have opted for it to be advert free. This means everyone is equal, whether they have money or not.
I am passionate about the region and the amazing creative talent that lives and breathes among us. So much of it goes unnoticed and our creative community is disjointed in its interaction.
I am a design and marketing specialist, so it is natural for me to want to utilize my talents in creating something free and readily available for the community.
I have published books on the local street art and donated artwork to various places, this is the biggest way yet I can think of to grow the recognition of the creatives in the region - locally, nationally and globally.
$400:
- General admin & set up costs (website build, domain name and hosting for 1 year)
- Promotion through printed flyers and Facebook
$600:
- Research, communication, interviewing & photographing local creatives for the magazine
- Driving to interviews all over nelson
- Writing all the articles
- Over 100hrs of design & layout & uploading the finished document as a free community asset
Anything above $1000 will go to Community Art Works
Goal Amount Change 29 April 2017
Hi! We have decided to change the goal amount to $1000. This means more opportunity to raise money for Creative Nelson and also increases the likelihood of going over the goal amount to raise money for Community Art Works!
We have decided to do the launch with as little cost as possible and use the funds raised where they really need to be. Thanks
