Happy Anniversary Chic Compass!<\/p>\n

Chic Compass celebrated it\u2019s one-year anniversary this past summer and to keep the celebration going, we are excited to bring you this latest edition. It has been a year of discovery, surprises and certainly change in so many industries. As the print industry has shrunken rapidly over this last decade, we at Chic Compass bravely felt compelled to offer something fresh and inviting. We believe in CONTENT and partner with hand selected advertisers in unique ways that most magazines do not offer. For readers that prefer a digital presence over a traditionally printed version, we have that to offer, too. We will be expanding our blog and will continue to keep you posted on all the social media outlets for exciting events that we will be hosting.<\/p>\n

The magazine was a new addition to the Forgotten Song Music (FSM) family. Forgotten Song Music is a multi-faceted organization that published the book Midnight Muse \u2013 Las Vegas \u2013 Milestones in Music, and a two set CD and documentary film by the same name. The film can still be seen on PBS \u2013 Las Vegas on occasion. FSM also executive produced an album called Las Vegas Suite with Carolyn Freeman of American Jazz Initiative and Rob Case of New Pants Publishing. Nathan Tanouye created the music and arranged it. Nathan produced the album with Ron George. Clint Holmes wrote the lyrics and performed on it.
\nAbout five years ago, Forgotten Song Foundation, Inc. was established. This organization is a 501c3 non-profit that was created to give scholarships and grants to the University of Nevada \u2013 Las Vegas Jazz Studies and Art Studies along with College of Southern Nevada Jazz studies. They also give out grants to likeminded 501c3 organizations focused on the arts. Their mission is dedicated to recognizing, remembering, and sustaining the visual artists and performance artistry of live music for future generations.<\/p>\n

The magazine is a magnificent fit for both organizations. It offers a continuous organic platform to showcase what Forgotten Song Music and Forgotten Song Foundation were created for and so much more. Chic Compass focuses the spotlight on artists, musicians, poets and the arts in general and so many other \u201cchic\u201d experiences like fashion, travel, dining, etc. It\u2019s our way to give back to the arts which is always one of the first to lose funding when government budgets are cut.<\/p>\n

We invite you to travel with us on this wonderous journey as we point the compass to the next era. So, look out 2020, we are just getting started!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
