The Forward Foundation Calendar

The Forward Foundation calendar is a public resource designed to publicize island events and coordinate scheduling. One can post new events to the calendar in a variety of sub-calendars, including arts, music, business and technology, and more. Sub-calendars can be downloaded and subscribed to in various calendar programs.

The main address for the Forward Foundation calendar is:

This calendar also contains a monthly summary of events which can customized, printed and emailed for various purposes. It is linked off of the main calendar but can be located directly at:

These calendars can be shared and help plan and coordinate events. However, to limit clutter please do not list reoccurring events more than once a week. Event posting is moderated by the Foundation, which reserves the right to remove and edit any and all events.

Some posting guidelines:

  • List reoccurring events at a maximum of once per week to avoid clutter and promote general usefulness.
  • Use event titles such as "Something @ Somewhere". For instance, "Plant sale @ Lyon Arboretum".
  • Keep your event descriptions short, no more than a concise paragraph or two and formatted in one continuous line. Visit the Forward Foundation calendar summary page to see examples.
  • Put email addresses and URLs in your event description to send people to more information.
