BENEFITS
This professional, personalized service is a cost effective way to achieve permanent, world-wide coverage. A webpage costs less than a print ad and delivers much more.

Capturing the lively action in a webpage offers archival material, audience development and community outreach. The cost of this communication service is very reasonable. Please contact me for various services and costs.

Nice things they've said...
Thanks Kate – this is excellent!
I will share this with Robert Bateman – he will be thrilled by it. Peter Ord, Managing Director, The Robert Bateman Centre. |
I really appreciated the clarity and effervescence of how you represented Offerings/Offrandes! It is very inviting. Great job, and I am sure it has much to do with the thoughtful visitors who have dropped in to Open Space - many of whom I have never seen before. Congratulations! Helen Marzolf, Director of Open Space. |
As an artist I get so absorbed in my work that I forget to think about the management and promotional aspects required for the art world. Thanks again for the incredible work you've done for me,
Marie-Andrée Allison. |

Christine Reimer re webpage for "Transition - Visceral Landscapes"
"You have my sincere gratitude and admiration for all the work you have done for me in the past couple of months. Your sensitivity, positive attitude and knowledge of the public relations and social media have been an enormous boost to my visibility as an artist."
Christine’s Preview Page sent to Art Openings media contacts sparked the interest of Robert Amos, Times Colonist arts columnist and a writer from the Saanich News. Christine sold several paintings via the exhibition.

Victoria’s City Hall hosted The Witness Blanket in September 2014. Thank you Kate, the webpage looks great! Office of the Mayor, Dean Fortin. "Kate, this is marvellous. The way you’ve done your own weaving of the stories is lovely. Congratulations!" Jane Hutchins. "I remember long ago hearing something about the Indian residential schools, but never any details or understanding. Such an inexplicable and inconceivable history. And it happened in Canada, of all places! After nearly 84 years, I don't shock easily, but this shred of history did it!" Towne Bannon, San Diego, USA. "Kate, I am so touched by going through this beautiful story – so well laid out and clearly described. It brought me to tears. Your artistic perspective so enriches my life." Dorothy Strachan. "Thanks for sharing this incredible story, Kate. What an amazing project!" Vanya McDonell, Community Development Coordinator, FGCA. "Thank you for all of your hard work and putting together such a comprehensive site!" Rosy Hartman |

“Kate produced a wonderful webpage on our business, Knotty by Nature Fibre Arts. Then she promoted our community-based Fibrations festival which got the attention of local media. After the press release for Fibrations went out, we followed it with an excellent webpage by Kate Cino, which attracted CFAX, the Times Colonist and Check 6 news. Her work is thoughtful, well rounded and very effective, I support this advertising opportunity as I believe it will benefit our outreach.”
Stephanie Papik speaking to the 2013 organizing committee of the First Nations, Metis and Inuit show. |

The Integrate Arts Festival in August 2013 had special guests.
“I just wanted to thank you Kate for this fabulous promotion of the festival! I checked out the rest of your website. Your publicity work is clean, clear and engaging. Well done! I was on the executive of the Federation of Canadian Artists for two years, in charge of Publicity. So I can appreciate the amount of effort that goes into the webpages.”
Visual artist and administrator Sandy Terry.
