New City Communications

Full disclosure — –a million billion years ago, I sold ads for this publication and my shop has received ongoing editorial mention.
I love local media! Whenever I am out of town I pick up whatever free weekly publication is available and refer to it for the skinny on arts and entertainment events.
Newcity, a free news and arts weekly, is one of the last local papers published here in Chicago, and has been published every week for about twenty years.
With so many titles owned and edited by large national companies, Newcity’s quiet and consistent coverage of what’s really going in our fine town is always a pleasure to read.
Their gallery section is the most comprehensive in the city, and their film reviews are always top notch.
They also publish supplemental titles, including Boutiqueville, an overview of Chicago’s independent fashion scene, and Best of Chicago, their oft-​imitated– never-​duplicated annual manual.
Do other papers boast more pages? Sure. But Newcity’s commitment to superior local coverage of the best and brightest in Chicago arts and entertainment stands alone.
You can pick up a copy of Newcity at bookstores, cafes, or in their signature orange boxes in high-​traffic neighborhoods.
