ANNOUNCING WORLD CONGRESS LOGO COMPETITION
We are all looking forward to welcome you to our next Subud World Congress here in Puebla, Mexico, in 2014. We are already enthusiastic and busy with the preparations.
It’s time to choose the LOGO that will frame this great event. The Congress logo will be the iconic symbol for the Subud World Congress 2014 and will be used in all Congress advertising, website, letterheads, posters, souvenirs, t-shirts, etc. We know that we have many creative Subud brothers and sisters, full of good ideas. So we are sure that one of you will design the perfect logo for our next Subud World Congress!
For all these reasons, we are pleased to invite you to participate in our Subud World Congress (SWC) Logo Competition. The winner – the one who designs the winning logo – will have the congress registration fee waived. Complete information about the competition may be found here English, Spanish, French and Russian (click).
CALLING ALL SUBUD ARTISTS
A 5 x 7 art sale and exhibition for the benefit of SICA will be held during the Americas Gathering this summer in Vancouver, Canada,
You are all invited to donate works of art (any kind of medium including photography) on 5″ x 7″ (13cm x 18 cm) matt board or canvas board for this very special exhibition. But. . . YOU MUST ONLY SIGN YOUR WORK ON THE BACK as all works will be exhibited anonymously!
Each work of art will have a removable tag beneath it with a number on it. At a certain hour during the opening reception, “the pull” will be announced. At that moment, and not a moment before, people who want a particular work will pull the numbered tag by that work of art and take it to our gallery volunteers to purchase that work. Only then, will they find out whose work they bought.
Artists can submit as many works as they like. Bring them to Vancouver in your suitcase, or you can mail them ahead. Just remember that they have to be signed on the back, and they have to be done on 5″ x 7″ matt board, cardboard, canvas board – something that will stand up on a shelf and not curl.

SICA Britain has a terrific new website
As the site explains, SICA is a non-profit organisation that seeks to promote and support culture that is an outer expression of our inner selves. It does this by supporting Subud members who are engaged in cultural activities. The site features work in the fields of painting, literature, film, music or indeed any activity that embodies culture. As the SICA community grows in Britain, we hope to be able to establish funds to act as seed money to get cultural projects off the ground.
Primarily the website is a showcase for the work of British members. However as the SICA acronym implies we are part of an international organisation, we are happy to include artists from around the world who want to display their work.
