| It is the mission of BearsandBuds.com to provide a forum of both promotion and self promotion by which the Professional Member/artists may display their creations, be honored as creators and their contact information be easily accessible to our readers and collectors. We connect the artists and the collectors within the pages of Bears&Buds' monthly online teddy bear magazine; called a Webzine.
Through the Global Directory listings, featured articles, monthly theme photo submissions, Yahoo groups and the Annual URSA Awards Competition, members are able to participate directly with the web site which provides visibility and ongoing enthusiasm for the teddy bear industry. Collectors and readers are entertained, educated, and have access to artist members 24/7.
