Events and Happenings

We trust you had a great 2023! DP Global Media has been busy providing media support to our community and business partners.

Our partnership with Upscale Magazine has been phenomenal. As Digital Manager for Upscale Media Group, our company president Denise Powell managed online operations and the writers team covering news, entertainment, fashion, lifestyle and health during the national magazine’s 34th year in operation.

DP Global Media also established a joint venture with Atlanta’s Let’s Celebrate Something to host Cover Unveiling events for Upscale Magazine billed as Scale Up Business Networking Events. This partnership took DP Global Media and Upscale Magazine to reality television to be featured on OWN’s Love and Marriage Huntsville (#LAMH) in Huntsville, Alabama.

We also provided video and photography support at the Jubillee Festival and particpation in the reenactment of the Bloody Sunday March in Selma, Alabama. We took in so much history and participated in discussions with thought leaders such as Congresswoman Maxine Waters and Yohance Gregory, son of late great comedian Dick Gregory.

We also look forward to work ahead with the Florida African American Heritage Preservation Network (FAAHPN), a consortium of 30 museums in the state of Florida, in 2024.

Like many businesses that interface with the public, since the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, DP Global Media has been on an uphill climb to reestablish our audience and reinvent our processes for reaching you. In doing so, we have joined forces with the community around us and expanded to sharing our products and services virtually and across digital platforms.

We look forward to bringing back the community-focused energy that we brought you in 2019. It was so much fun making people smile, laugh, dance, and enjoy life through our lense and vision. On top of celebrating a success year of sales of Welcome to the A! A Smart ATLien’s Guide to Life in Metro Atlanta, we closed out the year in style and with love for the community with the 1st Annual International Unity Day Festival on Saturday, November 16, 2019.

Thanks to all of the community leaders, businesses, food trucks, and most of all our great supporters who came out and showed major love at International Unity Day 2019!

Denise Powell was excited and humbled to have been invited to speak at the Scholarship Service at her home church, Philadelphia Primitive Baptist Church in Tallahassee, Florida on June 9, 2019.

Thank you for helping make Welcome to the A!’s first year in publication, 2019, AMAZING!
