About this Event
Join us on April 24 at The Abbey in West Hollywood for a special edition of our Queers in Media mixer featuring some of Southern California’s queer and trans newsroom leaders. From local LGBTQ+ media stalwarts like the Los Angeles Blade and The Advocate to legacy media outlets like ABC7, this is your chance to mix and mingle with local queer editors and learn more about the outlets they work for, how to get hired and the type of pitches they’re looking for.
Make sure to RSVP to let us know you’re coming! We’ll have complimentary appetizers thanks to our generous hosts at The Abbey and happy hour pricing on select food and drinks until 8 p.m.
Text (323) 380-4077 if you have any questions or can't find the group.
