Great question Nicole,
One of my jobs is to spread the word about Visitor Studies Group events so I come at this question from the other angle - how can we better tell people about our events.
We have our own online calendar at www.visitors.org.u/news-events/ and send info out to our members. We also use the vsg, gem and this jiscmail lists.
In addition we add our event to the MA events page. I also sometimes add to 'Arts Professional' http://www.artsprofessional.co.uk/ (however it costs us to list there) and 'Arts Marketing Association' http://www.a-m-a.co.uk/ ...
But we find that most of our new attendees find us through twitter interactions or word of mouth.
Incidently, our next conference is all about change in the sector, so we're keen to hear from people with a digital element to their work...
(Nick - I may well be in touch to see if we can get listed with Collections Trust!)
