Year of Change...

​It is hard to believe it has now been a year since I assumed the mantle of CDO of IADR.  (CDO by the way means Chief Doll Organizer - for who really wants to be a CEO? *smiling*.)  It has been a year of some changes and learning curves as I have tried to see what members are wanting out of our organization and I appreciate all of Deb Wood's support during this time frame.  I hope you are enjoying the new website and the easier way to find/use the Registry as well as the newly created Artist's Studio pages. 
Another of the other changes has been the creation of the IADR Art Doll magazine (which the latest issue has currently been released this week).  Thank you to those helping with articles and interviews as a magazine can't be created by just one person.  As always, if you would like to see something in the magazine or do an article, drop me a note at​ [email protected].
As a member of IADR - (Member Only) you receive a free copy.  Otherwise it is $5.00 per issue.  Click the link to access getting a copy of the Fall/October 2023 issue at ​https://www.international-art-doll-registry.com/art-doll-magazine.html.

There has also been some changes to the juried doll events.  Wouldn't it be wonderful to see more of those members that have won past events to enter in the coming year?  A new Masters category has been added to the competition (to read more about that - click here)!  Not only do the presenters benefit from the shows but we who watch the events are inspired as well.
We are now reaching the Year End Event which will have a few changes to it too.  For one of them - an Artist can submit for ALL three opportunities for the awards (unless for the Rising Star of 2023, the applicant doesn't meet the qualifications).  That is three opportunities to win one of these large cash awards plus certificate!  Also, if an Artist wins Best Doll of the Year,(as an example), then they are not able to win the other two awards for this year's competition.  Each competitor is only eligible to win one of the three awards.  That means at least three dollmakers will walk away with an award.  This is a great opportunity for past professionals/masters to come back and compete for Year 2023.  Each year past winners may compete again to win that year's awards.  For more information about the Year End requirements check out ​https://www.international-art-doll-registry.com/year-end-2023-submission.html.
Finally, with the new Podcasts, we now have another way to get your images on our Instagram and our Youtube channel.  IADR is all about helping you get seen!  For if you can't be seen you can't make sales or have your dolls enjoyed by others through a gallery.  If you have any other suggestions on how to help IADR grow, I would love to hear them too.  In the meantime, Happy Dollmaking!
