MCA-I North Jersey presents:

JAMIE XV’s SHOW AND TELL!

For each of the past 15 years, MCA-I’s North Jersey and Princeton chapters present The JAMIEs – Jersey AJamie Awardwards for Media Innovation and Excellence. And each year, after the event, MCA-I North Jersey presents the “Show and Tell,” where selected winners present and discuss longer portions of the programs that won the prizes.
