Alexandria Living Magazine, the only lifestyle publication for the Alexandria region, launched its website Jan. 16, 2018 and its bi-monthly print edition in September 2018.
Alexandria Living Magazine aims to showcase the individuals, places, businesses, events and issues affecting the dynamic and growing City of Alexandria and surrounding neighborhoods.
Winner of the 2018 Rising Star Award from the Alexandria Chamber of Commerce, Alexandria Living Magazine had a hugely successful first year and looks forward to many years of serving the Alexandria community.
“Our goal is to tell interesting stories and for everyone to learn something new each time they visit our website, read our weekly e-newsletters or pick up the magazine, whether it’s about a new restaurant opening, local personality, real estate or events,” Barton said. “With Alexandria’s unique culture and history — and growing the way it is — it deserves its own magazine!”
