On Tuesday, April 9 at 4 p.m., WYPR’s Community Advisory Board (CAB) is hosting a community conversations event where six community members will be invited to pitch a story that they feel deserves coverage on WYPR to a room of producers and content creators.

Each guest will have 7 minutes to give their elevator pitch followed by 3 minutes of questions and discussion. If the WYPR representatives think your topic is a good fit for their on-air program, they'll follow up to invite you back for a future story!

While there is no guarantee your topic will get airtime, you will learn about a host of ways WYPR - and our sibling station WTMD 89.7 FM - can further bolster your topic of interest to the greater Baltimore area.

CLICK HERE TO APPLY: Submit your interest to apply by Wednesday, March 27 with a brief description of your topic and why you think Baltimore’s NPR news station should cover it on-air. 

Someone from WYPR’s CAB will reach out to confirm if your topic has been selected, inviting you to the community conversations event on Tuesday, April 9.
