Do you freelance? Join the NPC Freelance Committee Happy Hour, Feb. 16 at 5:30 p.m.

Are you an independent journalist or communicator? Would you like to improve your freelance work? Do you want to keep up with new opportunities? Join the NPC Freelance Committee and meet the new chair for our first Happy Hour Soiree of the year on Tuesday, Feb. 16 at 5:30 p.m. in the NPC's Truman Lounge.

The event is open to National Press Club members and their guests. No RSVP necessary. The Press Club provides complimentary cheese and fruit but you pay for your own drinks.

The soiree is part of a series of casual get-togethers to connect with fellow freelancers and learn about upcoming events. Come prepared to talk about your experience and how you would like to participate in the committee’s initiatives.

The NPC Freelance Committee helps freelancers raise their professional profile, develop new professional and multimedia skills, and connect with hiring editors both within and outside the Club by hosting networking events and organizing workshops.

If you want to keep up with committee activities, make sure you are on our e-mail list by sending your name, e-mail address and phone number to Sarah Driggs at [email protected]. For any other questions, email the NPC Committee Chair Antonella Ciancio at [email protected].
