I love when this happens. Cameron Beers of BA21 brings us up-to-date on an old post about the Piedmont Council of the Arts website:

Just wanted to follow-up with some of the comments here. My company is responsible for the new PCA site.

Calendar Subscriptions: check out right below the calendar box for “Helpful Calendar Tips”. There’s a “Subscribe” link that lets you subscribe to each calendar in ICAL, HTML, or XML format. Unfortunately, Google doesn’t allow a group calendar feed (ie. “subscribe to all PCA calendars in iCal format”). So, if you want to subscribe to all, you can subscribe to each one and with iCal, choose “add events to existing calendar” (basically pulling all events into a single iCal calendar). There are other programs that will aggregate multiple calendar feeds into one calendar.

Arts Blog Subscriptions: this is available both on the homepage (see the RSS icon next to the latest posts) and in the blog section (see the sidebar link).

I tried all this out for myself. It was simple to subscribe to the Arts calendar (Click on the Google button under the calendar– I chose the “Other Events” calendar, to get the literary stuff — and add it to your Google calendar.) And I’m getting the RSS feed from the blog now. Great improvements!
