Join Christina Silvestri, editor of Arizona Foothills Magazine, for an intimate afternoon tea at THE LOFT, hosted in collaboration with Lauren Allen Culinary Events.
Christina will share insight into what makes a story worth telling, what catches an editor’s attention, how ideas evolve into editorial features, and how to communicate the story behind your work in a way that feels interesting, relevant, and memorable.
This afternoon is for anyone with a story they’d like to tell, including artists, designers, makers, entrepreneurs, and creatives of every kind, as well as anyone who simply loves tea, good food, great company, and a beautifully styled table.
Guests will enjoy a special selection of teas curated by tea sommelier Jorge Rizo, paired with savory and sweet bites by Lauren Allen Culinary Events, while gathering for an informal conversation about creativity, storytelling, and the editor’s eye.
Set inside LA Loft, expect a relaxed afternoon of conversation, delicious pairings, beautiful details, and connection with other creatives.
