FABRIK MAGAZINE SPECIAL OFFER FOR LUCIE FOUNDATION NEWSLETTER SUBSCRIBERS.

The Lucie Foundation and Fabrik Magazine have teamed up to expand marketing opportunities for our Photographers to the interior design and architecture markets. Fabrik's Summer issue focuses on Photography.
 
Marketing yourself directly to interior designers and those currently decorating homes opens up new opportunities for you as a photographer and is a great investment in your career. Most of us would rather see our art hanging on someone's walls rather than in our studio, stacked in the closet, or under your bed.
 
There is a special Lucie discount, saving you approximately $50 (Use the promo code "Lucie"). Ad deadline is July 10.
 
Visit the following link for more information: http://www.fabrikmagazine.com/e/artist/
 
BONUS! Free online showcase with your print ad!
 
Artists that place an ad will receive a free ArtistConnect spot at no extra cost as a bonus for advertising. Fabrik's ArtistConnect program has been setup to promote and market artists via email to 30,000 interior designers, galleries, art consultants, art directors, architects and production designers throughout the country.
 
The following link has more info on the ArtistConnect program: http://www.fabrikmagazine.com/content/artistconnect
 
These types of full color ad promotion to this market usually run at least 3-4 times the price in other publications. Fabrik Magazine is working very hard to support and connect artists with the design world with the understanding of an artist's budget. It is more important now than ever to stand out and market your art.
 
Summer Issue: Focus on Photography
 
This summer, Fabrik Magazine, Los Angeles' premier art and design magazine focuses on Photography in Los Angeles. Features include LA's new Annenberg Space for Photography, an interview with acclaimed architectural photographer, Julius Shulman, an interview with Juergen Nogai, spotlights on some of LA's Leading Photographers, and their comprehensive Los Angeles Art and Design Directory.
 
Fabrik is also pleased to announce a partnership with the Kor Hotel Group, a collection of distinctive hotels offering innovative style and unique design. The Kor Hotel Group's LA properties include the chic Viceroy Hotel in Santa Monica, the retro-nostalgic Avalon and French- and Far East-inspired Maison 140 hotels in Beverly Hills and the classicly -designed Chamberlain in West Hollywood.
 
Fabrik Magazine will be available in every room and lobby of each of these exclusive and chic hotels and in most cases the only magazine in the rooms.
 
Don't miss out on this special Photography Issue. Participate now in the most cost-effective way to reach a sophisticated and engaged audience, upscale, well educated and with significant disposable income.
