WHAT THE FORWARDIAN HAS PAUL BEEN THINKING LET’S SHARE SOME MEMORIES.

Hey Dudes and Dudettes, I hope my words find you well.

Well, It’s been another incredible week for the arts. Lots of things to do and some beautiful weather to do it in. There was some rain and even tornadoes that made their presence known but, over all, it was a week to enjoy the arts in their fullest radiance.

We’ve recently published the June Issue of our Monthly Version of The Forwardian Gazette and we’ve begun the distribution of our printed edition to several locations where individuals can pick up a copy and read it at their leisure. We could use some help in this endeavor and you’re welcome to contact us if you’re able and willing to place our magazine throughout the world. In any case, we hope you’ll enjoy reading it.

On the Forwardian front, the submission deadline for The Forwardian Film Festival of Saturday June 1 st has come to past and we’ve received some incredible cinematic gifts to share during this year’s festival. We’re now in the selection process to pick the best of the best. This is not an easy task as almost all of the films are of a very high quality. But, we’re up to the challenge because we love the art of film and love exploring new works. We can’t wait to share with you what we have chosen. Let’s Art. Well, that’s all from me for now. How are you? Please feel free to ask me any questions you may have about this publication, The Forwardian Arts Society, or anything at all. I promise to tell you everything. I would make a terrible spy.

I look forward to hearing from you soon and I'll keep a good thought for you until then.

Going Forwardian with you Paul Adam Smeltz The Forwardian Arts Society
