Frame Destination, Inc. Limited Time Offer to Sponsor Your Membership in AaI&A

I'm pleased to announce that Frame Destination, Inc. has become the first company to begin sponsoring memberships in the AaI&A Digital Print Research Program. Frame Destination is a leading online resource for photographers, artists, and printmakers looking for elegant, ready-made, and reasonably priced picture frames and framing supplies that conform to the highest quality standards of conservation framing practices. Frame Destination will begin to routinely offer subscriptions to AaI&A as part of its value-added customer rewards programs.

Frame Destination's first AaI&A membership offer begins right here on the AaI&A news page! It is a limited time offer that runs until April 25, 2010. Just purchase $100 worth of items at the Frame Destination website and enter this promo code: "AA501". You will receive a 10% price discount and a free one-year subscription to AaI&A. Your invitation to join AaI&A will arrive in your email. Follow the link to sign up for free. That's awesome!

I want to personally thank Mark Rogers, President of Frame Destination, for so generously stepping forward to help me with the AaI&A mission of providing comprehensive print permanence information to fellow photographers and printmakers. Like myself, Mark is a serious amateur photographer and his passion for digital photography led him to found Frame Destination just as my passion for digital printmaking led me to found Aardenburg Imaging & Archives. Mark and I thus share a great interest in the advancement of digital printmaking, a mutual interest that creates a natural synergy between our two companies and a common bond between our customers.

When I first conceived the idea of group memberships to AaI&A, my goal was to give both corporate and institutional sponsors a way to financially support the AaI&A research without compromising its independence. The value-added purchasing incentives that Frame Destination, Inc. will be using to promote its products while at the same time contributing to membership growth here at AaI&A shows we can make it happen. Companies serving today's digital photographers and printmakers can partner with Aardenburg Imaging & Archives to create a win-win situation for everyone.
