The Ad POP (Pride in Online and Print) Awards, presented by the National LGBT Media Association, reward the best online and print advertising in regional LGBT media. The Detroit area awards were presented on June 10 at a celebratory brunch hosted by Between The Lines aboard The Portofino, Detroit's newest luxury yacht.
Awardees include Abracadabra Jewelry/Gem Gallery in Ann Arbor, B. Ella Bridal in Plymouth, The Detroit Institute of Arts in Detroit, The Fisher Theater/Simons Michelson Zieve, Inc., Metals in Time in Royal Oak and Pewabic Pottery in Detroit.
The National LGBT Media Association brings together the top regional newspapers serving the U.S. LGBT communities. LGBT media differs from other minority media by being most successful when it is local. All national ads placed in local LGBT media are automatically entered into the Ad POP awards. The Ad POPs recognize clients, creative and placement agencies, and winners are selected based on their image and messaging.
NGMA represents legacy brand names and new top performing papers: Bay Area Reporter (San Francisco), Bay Windows (Boston), Between the Lines (Detroit), Dallas Voice, Gay City News (New York City), Los Angeles Blade, Philadelphia Gay News, South Florida Gay News, Georgia Voice, Washington Blade, Watermark (Central Florida) and Windy City Times (Chicago).
