Why Arts Writing Matters: Launching the SHOUT
About the presenters: Emily Christensen & Teri Mott launched the SHOUT, a Wichita-based arts and culture newsroom, in April 2024. Since then, they have published news, feature stories, and critical writing by 25 writers from across the state of Kansas. Emily & Teri will join us to talk about why arts writing is an important piece of the journalism landscape and share their start-up journey — including the wins and bumps along the way.
