Local Briefs Policy

The Durango Herald welcomes submissions for its briefs columns. Items of general interest for meetings and events open to the public will be accepted for publication free of charge.

Events that cost more than $50 will not be accepted for briefs unless the event is hosted by a nonprofit organization or is a fundraiser.

We accept good quality head-and-shoulders photos, in black-and-white or color, of people featured in a brief. Photos will be printed if space permits. Logos will not be used.

The Herald reserves the right to reassign the brief to an appropriate category and to edit or reject any material submitted. Items will be published only once.
