COMMUNITY MEDIA DAY | ANNUAL NATIONAL CELEBRATION OF LOCAL STORIES

Thanks to everyone who watched and came by during this special 30th year in public service. Eric Michael Schrader, former station coordinator, conversed with #TeenTigerTV Youth Leader about his passion for video storytelling and the impact of his opportunity for self-discovery at WPAA-TV. Ubuntu storytellers will join us again Nov. 21st, Dec.19th. The civic education message recorded with #CitizenMike and Secretary of the State Stephanie Thomas was shared with our community media peers. It will provide vital information until the next general election. Our plan for The Superhero Within remains in flux. Let us know if you want to show it at your school. The Mission In Mosaic is a permanent installation in our foyer. The Dedication Story is available here.
