CowichanCulture.ca is operated on a non-profit basis, with funding from the Cowichan Valley Regional District.
Basic listings are free to everyone. However, you can get a big promotion boost by running a poster on the site. Posters appear under your listing, as well as in the sidebar of the site long in advance of your event.
Currently poster placement is not for sale. It is only available to those who help spread the word about CowichanCulture. You help spread the word, and we fill your account with CowichanCulture poster credit, which you can use to run your posters.

When you upload your poster you choose a poster plan from the chart below. Each poster plan, gives you a different number of sidebar views (advance views in the right column) and listings views (your poster appearing under your listing in the daily listings. The "Best For" column is a suggested length for maximum coverage but our system will space your views out evenly from the start of the campaign to the day of your show, so you can use any plan over any time period.
