PRINT EDITION CALENDAR:
Submission Deadline: 15th of the month at NOON for the NEXT month's issue
Our print edition calendar is meant to feature events of interest to parents, children and families as a whole. Since space is limited, FREE events and those held by non-profit organizations, area cultural institutions (such as museums, zoo, theatres, art gallery, etc), and support groups receive preference. If you are a for-profit business, your chance of being included in our calendar is reduced, unless your event is unique or determined by the editor to be of great interest to a wide portion of our readership.
Since we receive many more items than we can use in our print edition, submission of an item does not guarantee it will be used. Our calendar editor works very hard to put together a mix of events which will appeal to a broad audience, over a wide geographic area. The only way to GUARANTEE that your event will be featured in our magazine or on our web site is to PURCHASE A PAID PRINT or ONLINE ADVERTISEMENT.
CALENDAR "ONLINE EXCLUSIVES":
If your submission is received after the print deadline, it will be considered for the "Calendar Online Exclusives" section of our web site or for our new "Families On-The-Go" newsletter which goes out via e-mail in between print issues of WNY Family to update readers who have signed up for it.
Tips for Preparing Your Calendar Item:
Your item will have the best chance of being used if you keep these guidelines in mind:
