In general, events are considered eligible for the calendar if they are open and of interest to the general public. Preference is given to arts and cultural events and City-sponsored events. The Division of Community Services reserves the right to omit entries if they are not deemed eligible or if space is limited. When we determine this to be the case, we make every effort to inform the organization whose event will not be included. |
