COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION

Explore What’s Taking Shape

Explore PBS Michiana is growing through the stories, creativity, knowledge, and experiences of our community. Some opportunities are already underway, while others are just beginning. We invite you to explore what’s happening—and imagine what you might contribute.

Art / Lit — Creative Community Showcase

Are you an artist, writer, poet, or photographer? Our growing Art / Lit showcase celebrates creative voices from across Michiana. We welcome original work for consideration in future exhibitions.

CALL FOR WORKS

Special Collections — Stories Worth Preserving

Do you have photographs, letters, postcards, memorabilia, family archives, or an unusual collection with a story to tell? We’re interested in discovering the objects, memories, and personal histories that reveal something about life in Michiana—past and present.

Have Something Else in Mind?

Not every idea fits neatly into a category—and that’s part of what makes Explore interesting. Perhaps you have a collection to share, a local story worth investigating, an educational idea, or an entirely different project in mind.

We’d love to hear about it.
