The Milwaukee Press Club will host its annual Gridiron Awards Dinner on April 24th at the Italian Community Center. This event recognizes the Press Club Foundation's Annual Excellence in Wisconsin Journalism award winners, as well as its coveted Sacred Cat and Headliner Awards. Most importantly, proceeds from this event help to ensure the quality of Southeastern Wisconsin's journalistic community for years to come through college scholarships, mentoring, professional development and industry advocacy.
Sacred Cat award winner Leonard Pitts Jr. is a Pulitzer Prize winner and author. This year's Headliner Awards will be presented to Kitty Brennan and Will Allen. Headliner Awards are bestowed annually to people who are in the news and are making a positive difference in Milwaukee. For more information on the Gridiron Awards Dinner click here.
