Best of Mississippi 2008

Choose your favorites in our fourth annual reader survey!

Readers reign when it comes to our annual “Best of Mississippi” awards. Every year, your voices are heard all over the Magnolia State as you vote for the places and things that you love most—from your favorite spots to eat and shop to your favorite arts and entertainment venues and most-enjoyed day trip destinations. This year, we’re asking for your opinions in 90 categories, including several new areas! We’ll honor the top selections in each category in our special “Best of Mississippi” July/August issue and send each winner an award certificate.

Ten names will be randomly drawn from among all ballots received, and each winner will receive a signed copy of Mississippi Magazine’s cookbook, At the Table, and your choice of one of our signed and numbered Artist Series prints, a $75 value. The deadline for all entries is May 15, 2008.*. Click here for complete rules.Click here for complete rules.
