We build community when we share our stories - whether they be a memory, an experience or just simply telling what we think is great about this place. STORY MATTERS. is a story collecting project from The Rapidian and GRTV.
The Rapidian's story fort made an appearance at the "Break it Down, Make it Better" event, put on by the Avenue for the Arts and hosted by the Urban Institute for Contemporary Art (UICA) on Saturday, March 1. Annie DeYoung talks about the sparks of opportunities she's been able to take advantage of through her involvement with Avenue for the Arts. She says she'd had the chance to get to know people who have been on the Avenue for many years as well as those who just moved in last week- and sees it all as a great learning experience.

The Rapidian, a program of the 501(c)3 nonprofit Community Media Center, relies on the community’s support to help cover the cost of training reporters and publishing content.
We need your help.
If each of our readers and content creators who values this community platform help support its creation and maintenance, The Rapidian can continue to educate and facilitate a conversation around issues for years to come.
