Events

Public media can be a powerful force in our communities, creating an environment where people are inspired to learn more about each other, do more to solve societal issues and become their best possible selves. As community conveners and expert storytellers, we also have the power to have real social impact by bringing light to and promoting action to solve critical issues faced by the local communities we serve. Through our station events, we bring our content to life through experiences in neighborhoods across the region in partnership with local arts, culture, community and educational organizations.
