How to Follow the 2013 Beard Awards

Not joining us for the ceremonies this year? Not to worry! There are plenty of ways for you to get your fill of the Beards online.

Our Twitter page will be fired up for this Friday's Book, Broadcast & Journalism Awards dinner at New York City's Gotham Hall, as well as for Monday night's gala at Lincoln Center. Winners will be tweeted as they are announced on stage. As always, you can use hashtag #jbfa to participate in Awards-related tweeting.

On Monday, here on our blog, we'll be posting videos about the America's Classics inductees, Q & As with this year's gala chefs, and much more. That night's ceremony will also be streamed live at jamesbeard.org/awards.

Finally, for the first time ever, we're bringing the Beard Awards to Instagram! Visit our page on Friday and Monday for snaps of winners, food from the reception, and general revelry. If you're in attendance, go ahead and tag your own photos with #jbfa.

Happy Awards season!
