Community Calendar

The Journalism Lab is excited to announce four free journalism workshops at the downtown Dayton library on Saturday, August 1. The topics are a variation on some of the themes we discussed at our previous sessions last January.

A number of these sessions sold out the last time around, so booking a spot early is recommended. Times, more details and the sign up links are below:

10am - 11:30am: Freelancing in the Midwest

12pm - 1:30pm: Pitching your story idea

2pm - 3:30pm: Media literacy

4pm - 5:30pm: Audio journalism

Join us in the Wingert Tossey Pavilion at Snyder Park Gardens & Arboretum for yoga this summer! Our instructors, Emily and Casey, will guide you through gentle exercises in the beauty of the gardens on August 3rd at 9:30 – 11:00 a.m. All skill levels are welcome, from beginner to advanced. Bring your water and enthusiasm for a great time in nature.

Come get creative in a relaxed, welcome space–no experience necessary! We’ll provide materials, or feel free to bring your own. Whether you’re an experienced artist or just looking to unwind and try something new, this night is all about making, experimenting, and connecting with others through art.

Admission: FREE
