Database confusion

After spending next to a month scratching my head over switching our org's database to Salesforce, we've decided (thankfully) that it might be more trouble than it is worth. Luckily I have the Organizers' Database at my fingertips which seems to take care of most everything that I need without the massive headache that Salesforce proved to be.
Today I just started our first email campaign with constant contact. I can't tell you how much easier it is.
We've got a pretty full month coming up with two exhibitions and a pretty kick-ass lineup of music, workshops, and even a volunteer awareness night. I'm really looking forward to the 'zine show...
Other than that- things are great. It's getting a little chilly (okay- it's pretty cold) but the leaves are all turning beautiful colors so I'm just hoping I'll survive the winter without crying like a little girl.
Wish me luck:)

The New Job...

My how time flies! I just realized it’s been a month here at the 119 Gallery. I’ve spent it settling in and getting to know a whole new community. While it’s safe to say I miss my island home, it’s nice to be on a bigger piece of land. Lowell is a great town. There are a ton of artists here, a ton of non- profits, and a ton of interesting people. …read more
