Right now this is just your "save the date" heads up, since few details are available: The 3rd Annual KCRW Pie Contest will be happening on September 18th at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Specifics about where at the venue, what time, and who the judges will be have not been announced yet, though the station promises another slice of fun, with the contest, "great judges, loads of pie, another apron fashion show and plenty of family friendly activities." Sweet! Potential bakers, start perfecting your pie crusts now.

At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.
But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.
We’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else. Become a monthly member today to help sustain this mission.
Thank you for your generous support and belief in the value of independent news.
