Fellow Artists:

SummitLive365 <http://www.summitlive365.com/> is a FREE resource for artists, arts/culture organizations and venues throughout Summit County. Essentially, it is:

THE place where YOU want to be...

Yes, the site is an events calendar <http://www.summitlive365.com/event/?keyword&start_date&end_date&term&event_location&event_city=0&save_lst_list&view>, but it is much more than that. You can create a profile <http://www.summitlive365.com/artist/sarah-treanor/> to feature your artistic work, post classifieds <http://www.summitlive365.com/classified/> and even find jobs! <http://www.summitlive365.com/classified/job-posting-activities-coordinator-15-00-per-hour-based-on-experience/>

We are also a community. Our purpose is to help you become as successful as possible while achieving your artistic goals and dreams. And, once you join, we will leverage all of our resources – from social media to our mailing list (which is close to 1000 subscribers strong) – to make that possible.

For example, in the last month, we helped Summit Artspace <http://www.summitlive365.com/organization/summit-artspace/> double enrollment in a workshop (in just 2 days!), found a Kevin Smalley <http://www.summitlive365.com/artist/kevin-smalley/> an illustration gig and helped Mustard Seed Market <http://www.summitlive365.com/venue/mustard-seed-market-cafe-highland-square/> find 3 artists for a gallery show (Bronlynn <http://www.summitlive365.com/artist/bronlynn-thurman/> and Emily <http://www.summitlive365.com/artist/emily-s-durway/> sold pieces within a week of the show going up!)

If that's not enough, we offer "hands on" technical support. I am always available to have a meeting to teach you how to navigate the site, answer questions or offer advice.

Again – it's totally, completely and absolutely FREE. Do you know why? 

The arts are IMPORTANT! 

Which, of course, I don't have to tell you.

But I just wanted to throw this fact out there:

In 2014, arts and culture <https://www.arts.gov/news/2016/arts-and-cultural-production-contributed-7042-billion-us-economy-2013> added $704.2 BILLION to the economy. Yes. That's BILLION with a B.

And our mothers told us to "get a real job."

Summit County is literally bursting with things to do every day of the week (figuratively, of course.) As one recent guest shared: 

"I've lived in Akron for five months in the valley. I kept seeing a sign for Weathervane Playhouse <http://www.summitlive365.com/organization/weathervane-playhouse/> and never did any research to determine what it was all about. Then I went to SummitLive365.com <http://www.summitlive365.com/> and I see that Dracula is playing with links to their ticket page. Now I have two tickets for tomorrow night! How awesome is that?"
