Which events don't qualify?

Classes, workshops and seminars must be free or donation-based with no suggested dollar amount in order to be listed in our free calendar section. With some exceptions described here, all other classes qualify for a paid listing in our classes section.

We also don't publish free listings for: Real estate open houses, religious services, retail sales/specials, donation drop-offs and camps.

For exceptions, publishing process and our full event publishing criteria, see this page.

What's the deadline?

All submissions must be received by Thursday at noon to be considered for online publication and in the following Wednesday's newspaper. For a limited time during the post-COVID transition, we will be publishing only "calendar" and "art" events in the newspaper. Music+nightlife events or "club dates" will return to the paper later this summer.
