The decline started in the 1960s. <br /> The N&O had 120,000 subscribers, only 33,000 currently. <br /> This is happening all over the country. What was a weekly publication has become a <br /> monthly one, or gone out of business. <br /> Our State Magazine had its biggest year in 2020. What started as The State Magazine <br /> in black and white without ads and a base of 23,000 is now well over 188,000 <br /> subscriptions. The magazine dedicates 22 pages to NC living in every issue. <br /> Digital choices did not damage or diminish our growth. <br /> Our State Magazine will continue to celebrate Chapel Hill and North Carolina. <br /> We need to ask ourselves what makes you special, what sets you apart. <br /> We have a love of Orange County and commit to continuing our work to spotlight its <br /> unique offerings. <br /> New Business <br /> Katie Murray- OCAC <br /> Third Thursday Song Writer sessions <br /> Second Tuesday Open Mic <br /> February: Call for Art- The OC Arts Commission invites Black and Indigenous visual <br /> artists of Orange County to submit their works. <br /> Heidi Werner- Carolina Inn <br /> Redoing the lobby. <br /> 21 PagE C H 0 C V B B 0 D M e e t i n g January 18, 2023 <br />
