Did You???

Did you know that there are only 11 days left before the deadline for the Fairy Wedding and Their Guest Who Attend juried show?

This also means there is only one more show/ opportunity (which is our Christmas People Choice event) left to enter to be considered for the Year End Awards.  In order to participate in the big cash Year End Awards, you have to have participated in at least one of our events throughout the year.  

Did you also know that we have created our first IADR Podcast?  It was fun working with Bambi Lynn and we hope to be doing some more as well.  If there is a topic you would like discussed, let us know as this is more than sharing tips and hints.  It is how we can grow as dollmakers as well as our small business/art!  You can find it on Youtube under podcast or click the link here:

Also as we create new podcasts, there are more opportunities for your artwork to be shared - like here in the cover image for the Podcast.  More than likely I will be pulling these images from the Facebook collage that is featured in our IADR Art Doll magazine.  So keep posting your work-in-progress or finished pieces in our Facebook group - IADR Members Only so that you have the opportunity to be seen not only in our magazine but also like here in the podcast cover.

Did you know that my recent Conversation with Dollmaker Sandee Elvsaas is now also on Youtube?  Check it out at https://www.youtube.com/@iadr-internationalartdolls/featured or in our archived blogs using the category of Conversations for all past interviews.  

Did you know that the IADR is a great opportunity to be part of a wonderful doll community?  We have opportunities where we can hang out and play through our Shylock Doll Gathering (next meeting coming up in September).  Learn with the great resources of past and new tutorials that are available to members and also join us in our first sales event this year.  This is where we as a community help each other be seen and promote our own small business and artwork.   Finally, did you know it is easy to join?  Simply send me a message through our email at [email protected] or visit our website to contact me there as well.  So if you wonder is the $49.00 year membership fee worth it - realize we are one of the few organizations that actually offer cash awards for our shows' winners at no cost to IADR members included with all of our other membership benefits.
