New York, NY (PRWEB) September 10, 2007 -- Culture Catch (http://www.culturecatch.com), the popular, highly respected 'smart culture' audio and video podcasting website will be celebrating their hardworking peers at an event to be held during the 3rd Annual Podcast & New Media Expo on September 28, 2007 from 7:30 to 11 p.m. at the Ontario Convention Center, Ontario, CA (http://www.newmediaexpo.com). The party and networking event is free and open to all 2,500+ attendees of the Expo and their guests.

The event will feature a wide variety of entertainment MC'd by Hayden Black from "goodnight Burbank" including live music from the all girl trio Von Iva, DJ David Starfire, Aerial Arts from Dreya Weber, Brazilian belly dancers, and more. Decorations will be provided by Inflatable Arts.

In addition, there will be raffle of over $5,000 worth of prizes from co-sponsors Gibson, Griffin Technology, JBL, Monster Cable, Shure and Ultimate Ears. Associate sponsors include IODA Promonet, Kiptronic, and Podkive. The official media sponsor is MacObserver.

"Podcasting has now become an integral part of the new media landscape and we'd like to spend an evening socializing and celebrating with our fellow content creators," said Richard Burns, co-founder of Culture Catch. "We held a very successful Salon at MacWorld and we want to bring that energy here."

"With our Salons we attempt to personalize our smart culture digital content in a physical environment that can be enjoyed by everyone," said Dusty Wright, host and co-founder of Culture Catch. "As much as we love sharing culture in the digital domain, it's important to enjoy it on a physical level as well."

"Culture Catch is a great partner for the Expo," said Tim Bourquin, Founder & CEO of TNC New Media, the producers of the Expo. "They have a unique ability to bring together a community and their Salon event will be a fantastic way to meet and network with other online content creators. It's sure to be one of the highlights of this year's Expo."
