International Heraldry Day-Join the Party!

[Kathy McClurg]

International Heraldry Day is coming upon us fast! Mark your calendar – JUNE 10, 2014! Let’s have one day where heraldry is celebrated in all its forms by everyone with an interest regardless of jurisdiction, geographic area, favored styles, and favored year. To post celebratory events or just personal observances, a face book group has been started. Feel free to repost this to all potentially interested organizations, groups, etc…
Come join the party at:https://www.facebook.com/celebrateheraldry

I think it would be good to see other heraldic enthusiasts get involved in this worthwhile International Celebration.

Ladies and Gentlemen,
For those of you not engaged in social media, I wanted to give you the opportunity to see some of the efforts going into promoting International Heraldry Day 2014. Using the badge design and graphic done by Alexander Liptak last year and artwork developed specifically to promote International Heraldry Day 2014, we have been aggressively promoting the event on the web page of LjGroupArt and in Facebook.

Let's encourage everyone in the heraldry community to show their support for this event... (In 5 years it will just be a "natural" part of the community)

Is this (great!) initiative going to have a second session in 2015?

International Heraldry Day (IHD) focuses one day each year when heraldry in all its forms is celebrated worldwide. Regardless of jurisdiction, geographic area, customs, favored styles and favored period, the community focuses on wider joys of heraldry. The goal of the organizers is that eventually all heraldry enthusiasts will acknowledge the event in the years to come.

We are four months out from IHD 2015. The organizers are reaching out to additional organizations which may not have a strong presence in face book or other social media. If you know an organization interested in Heraldry - please send contact information to celebrateheraldry@gmail.com.

Will it be June 10 again this year, or is it e.g. the second Monday (or whatever) in June?

Will it be June 10 again this year, or is it e.g. the second Monday (or whatever) in June?

Always 10 June.

Always June 10, 2015. Of course, if this is inconvenient you are certainly invited to celebrate on a nearby weekend..

International Heraldry Day 2015 T-shirt is available. This year's color is Ash. Zazzle Controls Pricing. Strongly recommend checking in for deals - today in the USA all orders are 15% off. As we are aware of sales, we will do our best to post them on the IHD FB page. Celebrate Heraldry!
Note: Because white is "clear" and not having it so would require editing a number of files to make the whites "gray".. and "ash" is "gray" the white portions on this shirt will show as the gray of the T-shirt. We are working to also offer a White T-shirt which may take a few additional days. http://www.zazzle.com/international_her ... 2487591050
