Greetings from Feis America magazine! We met many wonderful people when we launched Feis America at N.A.N., at Nation's Capital Feis and at the McInerney Feis in Worcester, MA. We have had dozens of requests for our popular Feis America Rocks tees (soon available on the website!) and are doing our best to attend as many events as we have been invited to around North America.
Feis America will be published bi-monthly starting with the Nov/Dec 2008 issue which will be released to subscribers at the end of September and then distributed free at 10 events in all 7 IDTANA regions this fall.
www.FeisAmerica.com is a work in progress, and I invite you to check back frequently as we build a virtual Feis community for Irish dance enthusiasts in North America and beyond. Click on About Us to learn a little more about our rich family-oriented editorial content.
If you have seen our 4 page sneak preview piece, you know we will have original serial fiction by Rod Vick, an informative column called Step With Character authored by a renowned psychologist and a regular event calendar as well as regular features on Feis Families, Feis Mentors, Adult ID, Feis reviews from all 7 regions with lots of photos. True to a Feis, we will include music, art, fiction, language and even recipes. From littlies to senior men, parents and grandparents, adult dancers, performers, the teachers, adjudicators and the multi-generation teachers, we promise to promote and celebrate all that we love as Diaspora here in North America. We recognize the responsibility that comes with publishing a family magazine, and will conscientously promote positive mind, body, and spirit. And yes, we intend to pay careful attention to the use of language, correct writing practices and responsible advertisers.
Phew! Not your typical 'post', but I wanted to try to address all the questions and comments in one shot. Please share this especially with your dance teachers who can earn 20% commission on subscription sales at their schools.
I invite you to email me personally with suggestions, constructive criticism, ditorial ideas, photos for publication, events to publicize, inspirational stories, etc. Kathleen@FeisAmerica.com.
Best wishes and thank you for your support. We are delighted to give North American ID fans their very own magazine!
