L o R: Lincoln Anderson and Jennifer Goodstein accept a cleverly written proclamation from New York State Senator Brad Hoylman.
We’ve never been prouder of our big sister. Joined by dozens of friends, elected officials, past publishers and talented writers (including this paper’s former Blotter reporter, Al Amateau), the NYC Community Media family gathered at Houston Hall to celebrate 80 years of The Villager. Publisher Jennifer Goodstein and editor Lincoln Anderson introduced the paper’s new look (created in collaboration with senior designer Michael Shirey, who also gives Chelsea Now its visual spark). Brad Hoylman, Corey Johnson, Gale Brewer, Jerrold Nadler, Sheldon Silver and Scott Stringer were the electeds in attendance. After raising their glasses and downing some cake, our guests walked into the night with a primo bag of swag, the Villager’s anniversary issue and the possibility of a mention in Scoopy’s Notebook.
The Villager: Good enough to eat, but more fun to read.
