Communications Core

The Communications Core is in charge of handling outbound communications between Firefly Arts Collective and members. The Communications Committee:

Insures that communications go out on all channels as needed.

The GLOWBE, our Firefly newsletter.
The announce@fireflyartscollective.org email list, which is used for official announcements.
The editorial content on https://www.fireflyartscollective.org including Theme Camp listings, Art listings, etc.
