@ Build Coffee
6100 S Blackstone Ave, Chicago, IL 60637
Opening Thursday, August 17th, from 6PM - 8PM
This week’s Public Newsroom is another chance to join City Bureau’s Documenters team!
Want to get paid to inform the public? Or interested in learning some of the basics of journalism? Then this workshop is for you :). This training will feature a brief introduction to the Documenters and then focus on the art of interviewing—how to ask good questions, how to read your interviewee and how to adjust your approach in different interviewing environments. This will be a very interactive evening—be sure to bring paper and a writing utensil.
The workshop will be hosted by City Bureau’s Director of Community Engagement and Co-Founder Andrea Hart. After the event, attendees will be allowed to join the Documenters listserv and have access to paid freelance work as well as other trainings.
