This inaugural gala event will feature NPR White House correspondent Ari Shapiro in an on-stage conversation with KQED’s Scott Shafer and outLoud’s youth producers, followed by an intimate VIP reception. On this anniversary, outLoud is launching a campaign to expand its programming, increase social media and audience impact, cultivate youth leadership, and build on its track record of successful partnerships with StoryCorps, the Public Radio Exchange, KQED, and many others.
