About Trumpet Media
THE TRUMPET MAGAZINE
The Trumpet is New Orleans only community magazine written by neighborhood residents, for neighborhoods, about New Orleans neighborhoods. With over 110 contributors, our network is fulfilling our vision of “community voices orchestrating change,” and would like to invite you to be a part of this symphony.
The Trumpet Magazine is our answer to the digital divide. Just as the Internet has changed how information is presented to people, it has also changed the degree to which people can create and present their own information. However, many are worried about the effect that the Internet appears to be having on traditional print news. In a unique case like The Trumpet, we struggle to balance the two mediums to be able to let our physically-printed publication complement our online publication and vice versa.
Unlike other magazines, we chose to enhance the magazine by encouraging everyone to submit valuable content that informs and educates all New Orleanians. As contributor, you will help us shape each issue’s theme by contributing the news, photos and stories that affect, promotes and empowers our city, neighborhoods and residents.
We would like to invite you to join us as a sponsorship partner, reporter, photographer or a columnist!
Whether you want to write something “article style” or use The Trumpet to highlight a service or event, we encourage your submission.

The Trumpet Magazine is our answer to the digital divide. Just as the Internet has changed how information is presented to people, it has also changed the degree to which people can create and present their own information. It’s not saying anything new to call the Net a vast or seemingly limitless information source. However, many are worried about the effect that the Internet appears to be having on traditional print news. In a unique case like the Trumpet, we struggle to balance the two – to be able to let our physically printed material complement the material we place online, and vice-versa. In this way, we encourage people to use this website to study the process of putting the paper together as well as gaining insights into the finished product. Above all, we hope that people can and do use the site as a resource for finding information they might not get elsewhere, and for ensuring that they can keep their own ideas circulating.
