City and Art/Poetry Links



Click here for the most current site NEWS. Click here to see the 2012 FEATURED ARTISTS! Click here to visit the site's GUESTS page. * * *		LINKS - CITY AND ART/POETRY Over the years the Links page has grown tremendously with the number of venues added to the listings and the number of artists appearing at the concerts. In 2008, it was the most slowly-loading page on the site. As a result, in 2009 it was split into three sections. The first section contains links to the cities/venues hosting the concerts, as well as a small list of art and poetry links. The second section is a list of band links for the letters "A" through "L," and the third section is a list of band links for the letters "M" through "Z." Some cities/venues do not release their concert information until well into June or later (especially for series in August and September), so the Links section is continually updated during the summer as information is received. Click on a link below to go to one of the three sections. • CITY AND ART/POETRY LINKS • • BAND LINKS A - L • • BAND LINKS M - Z • LINKS PART I - CITY LINKS The links below are for summer concert venues. Unless otherwise noted, the contacts/venues listed are for the cities sponsoring the concerts. Links for other special concerts and events are included in the main listings. By clicking on the web address you will reach the main site for the city or organization sponsoring the concert. The address for the performance venue is also included. Click on a section of the alphabet below, or scroll down until you find the city name you are looking for. A - D \| E - I \| J - L \| M - R \| S - Z (Go to Art/Poetry Links) The "Attitude" Collection - On this page you'll find the creatures of Dorothy's "Attitude" series of photographs. The collection has been growing since about 2007, usually with at least a couple of new pictures added each year. However, since most appear in the website book, they will not be included here at this time. "BENCHED," from the "Attitude" Collection, photograph © Dorothy A.
