Event Details

Our Pub(lications) Crawl is a day-long event where you'll get to tour the offices of two fantastic magazines for an in-depth look at the way things really work. We've got Family Circle, Martha Stewart Living, The New York Times Magazine, People, Popular Mechanics and Teen Vogue magazines all ready to give you behind-the-scenes access. Come armed with your curiosity and questions, but leave the portfolios at home, please. Space is very limited, so RSVP to reserve your spot now.


THE DETAILS:
Friday, September 24, 2010

(Remember, it's only $25 to join as a Student Member ... if you join now or the day of the event, your admission will be FREE.)

WANNA COME?

Purchase your ticket online below, and indicate your 1st, 2nd and 3rd tour preferences: choose from Tours A, B and C as described below. No mixing and matching between tours.


Your confirmation email will let you know where to meet us on Friday morning, the 24th.



THE TOURS:

TOUR A: Martha Stewart Living and Popular Mechanics

TOUR B: People and The New York Times Magazine  This tour is full. Please choose between A and C.

TOUR C: Teen Vogue and Family Circle

BRING WITH YOU:
a government-issued photo I.D. for access to office buildings
money for your entry fee (if applicable), lunch and possible subway travel
a notebook for notes and a bag since you'll be getting handouts and magazines
umbrella/raingear and comfortable shoes since we'll be walking to the different offices

Leave the résumés and portfolios at home ... we'll have a Portfolio Review and Workshop later in the year and you'll have the chance to review it with our panel of professionals at that time.


THE FINE PRINT
Space is limited so RSVP asap! Your tour preferences are just that; in other words, they are not guaranteed. Tours are assigned on a first-come, first-serve basis ... so the earlier you RSVP, the better chance you have of getting your top choice. This also means that if you are part of a large group registering, you may not all get assigned the same tour.
