Since it's inception last year, City Island Images has continually grown a significant following as a result of our daily news and information service. According to Google, City Island Images enjoyed 28 thousand page views last month. As a result of our daily news coverage and our live video streaming of midtown City Island, City Island Images has been featured in Sunday's New York Post, as well as other local newspapers.

This 28K figure is several times the population of City Island and nearly 10 times the circulation of The Island Current, which only publishes 10 times a year.

AMERICAN MUSEUM QUIZ

Submitted by ub on

It's an election year and Congress is poised to make some key decisions that will certainly affect museums, especially nonprofit, 501(c)(3) organizations.

The U.S. Internal Revenue Service says that nonprofits "generally are permitted to engage in advocacy or lobbying related to their exempt purposes," although there are some rules to follow.

AAM has developed a true/false quiz to test your knowledge about how nonprofit museums are allowed to get involved during this election season. Good luck!

Museum is allowed to publicize Election Day.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT - WORDS OF WISDOM

Submitted by ub on

“There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as if everything is a miracle.”

— Albert Einstein

“When I am, as it were, completely myself, entirely alone, and of good cheer - say traveling in a carriage, or walking after a good meal, or during the night when I cannot sleep - it is on such occasions that my ideas flow best, and most abundantly. Whence and how they come, I know not, nor can I force them.”

— Mozart

“The weakness of men is the façade of strength; the strength of women is the façade of weakness.”

— Warren Farrell

VALUABLE NETWORKING TIPS

Remember that networking is always a two way street. We aren't just there to get something; we're there to learn what we can give. This is a gift for everyone involved. What can we contribute?

Tell your story. You will be asked who you are and why you are in attendance. Have your elevator speech ready, and give it with energy.

Know what to say. Sports events, major news cycles, the success of the event, the beauty of an item of jewelry, the quality of the hors d'oevres. Even owning your nervousness. Can be endearing.
