PICTORIAL: Vying for attention — Scenes from the Ethnic Media Meet and Greet

August 23, 2013 By Northwest Asian Weekly

Over 30 candidates vying for political office attended the 4th annual Sea Beez Ethnic Media–Candidates Meet and Greet at the Nagomi Tea House on Aug. 15 in an effort to introduce themselves to communities of color.

Candidates made it to the International District from as far away as Fircrest to make one minute speeches and mingle. (end)

The line for the microphone as candidates deliver their one-minute speeches. Each candidate wore a lei to stand out from the media. Julie Pham (who has the back to the camera) acted as the emcee.
