It’s a new year, which means great new and exciting things yet to come for community organizations and businesses across the state. Is your group or business in on the action? Now is the time to make sure.

Visit our online calendar at qnotescarolinas.com/calendar/ and see if your events are listed. If not, submit them. We use our online calendar to help us put together our print edition’s Q Events calendar every two weeks. Submitting a calendar listing is free and easy and it’s a phenomenal way to help get the word out about your event. Our calendar accepts recurring events, so if you host monthly or weekly social or support groups, submit those, too!

Your organization or business updates are always welcome, too. Share your news and updates with us by adding editor@qnotescarolinas.com to your news release or announcements list. Press releases can be sent to this email address.

Also, be sure to sign up for qnotes’ weekly email newsletter, filled to the brim each week with the most up-to-date news, features and upcoming events in the local and statewide LGBT community. Sign up online at qnotescarolinas.com/subscribe/.

If you’re an advertiser or thinking about advertising and need our new 2014 media kit, email adsales@qnotescarolinas.com. We hope you’ll stick around for another year of advertising and we thank you for your continued support of local, independent LGBT community journalism.

Thank you to all of our readers, supporters, advertisers, community organizations and businesses who help to make our work possible. : :
