Come party with Streetsblog Los Angeles and LongBeachize as we celebrate our success with the 2014 Los Angeles Press Club Awards banquet. In addition to taking home the “Best Blog” award for the second year in a row, members of our team picked up individual honors throughout the night including Sahra Sulaiman (Best Online Feature story, 2nd for Best Online News Story, 3rd for Best News Photo), and Damien Newton (3rd for Best Online Lifestyle Piece). SBLA sister publication’s Brian Addison also took home “Best Online Journalist.”

We’ll be returning to the home of our first fundraiser, the Los Angeles Eco-Village. Admission is $25 on a sliding scale. Food and drink will be provided.

We’ll have more details in the coming weeks, but if you already know you want to party with us, you can reserve your ticket at EventBrite.
