The newsletter is dead! Long live the blog!

For many years now San Antonio Potters Guild has produced a newsletter for their guild members. This was a wonderful way to share the news of our members. It promoted workshops, feature local artists, and keep us up to date. In the beginning this was mailed to everyone. We moved to a digital format some years ago. Technology has made it possible to share our guild with more efficient way. This blog will replace the 6 monthly newsletter.

The benefits of having a blog instead of a newsletter is limitless. The blog can provide instant updated information on events and happenings. New postings can be updated daily or weekly. Members will be able post comments on stories or add to information as needed.

At present I, Sarah Shore, will be writing the content of the blog, but soon featured bloggers could contribute to this blog. I would like to have featured stories of guild members, video demonstrations, workshop profiles, and many more.  It of course is a team effort and I hope to gain team members willing to post stories throughout the month.
