Style Weekly Wins Virginia Press Association Awards
The Richmond, Va., alt-weekly took home a total of 10 first-place VPA awards, the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports. Writer Brandon Walters and photographer Scott Elmquist each placed first in three categories; Elmquist and art director Jeffrey Bland shared one first place finish; Melissa Scott Sinclair and Scott Bass each grabbed one award for writing; and one went to the entire staff. Another Virginia AAN member, Port Folio Weekly, won two third-place VPA awards. UPDATE: We've been told that in addition to the 10 first-place awards, Style Weekly also won two Best-in-Show VPA awards, which are elected from all first-place winners in a newspaper's division. Photographer Scott Elmquist also recently took home another first-place award, from the Virginia News Photographers Association.
