Good Afternoon Museum Representatives:
I'm writing on behalf of the Wisconsin Federation of Museums (WFM) to
share with you a free marketing opportunity that has been presented
to 2010 Wisconsin Museums Week participants by Wisconsin Trails. In
response to the Wisconsin Museums Week press release that I sent to
Wisconsin Trails, the editors have requested a list of 2010 events at
specific museums for Museums Week. The editors are considering
(though can't guarantee) having a special call-out section in the
events & happenings section in their May/June issue which would
highlight Museums Week events. Apparently they did something similar
with St. Patrick's Day events in their March/April issue. But
anyway, it sounds like an awesome vehicle to get the word out about
Museums Week 2010 events and activities, and I encourage you to send
information about your organization's 2010 Museums Week events/
activities to WI Trails. They have requested that you send the date,
location and a short description of the Museums Week event(s) and the
museum's contact information to Wisconsin Trails assistant editor,
Chelsey Lewis at clewis@wistrails.com by Friday, March 26th. If you
could also send a carbon copy of your email to Chelsey to me @
zielkefamily@charter.net, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Per my previous email regarding advertising in Wisconsin Trails, the
May/June issue of the magazine will have an editorial highlighting
Wisconsin museums which will mention Wisconsin Museums Week and may
include some event information for 2010 Museums Week. So please
share your Museums Week activities with them.
If you have any questions regarding this opportunity, please don't
hesitate to contact me. I'm looking forward to a fun-filled, thought
provoking 2010 Wisconsin Museums Week!
Sincerely,
Bridgitt Zielke
