I Made This: a Youth Media Celebration

2601 Mariposa Street,San Francisco CA 94110

10 November, 2021

Description

Experience a showcase of original media pieces that reflect how a group of youth artists see themselves in the world. KQED Education’s Youth Media Challenges invite middle and high schoolers to make their voices heard by sharing their view of the world, or envisioning a better future. Past challenges have generated original podcasts, dances, political cartoons, engineering projects, and election coverage. November’s event will center around the origin stories of young media makers, playing off of the premise of NPR’s How I Built This with Guy Raz podcast, which weaves a narrative journey about innovators, entrepreneurs and idealists—and the movements they built. Students will be in conversation talking about how they found their voice, including what inspires creation and how they produced their piece. This event is offered to guests in person, with the option of streaming virtually for free from home.
