RSVP for Community Conversation Night - 2026 Open Newsroom

Friday, August 14, 5-7pm at Rhode Island College (Gaige Hall, Room 200)

The Community Conversation Night is the culminating event of The Open Newsroom, a fellowship through which undergraduates assume the role of a local journalist and develop deeper understandings of science issues facing RI communities. The Open Newsroom is a partnership between RI NSF EPSCoR and URI's Metcalf Institute.

The Community Conversation Night will offer interested members of the public an opportunity to view and engage with student portfolios and discuss the perspectives around science and community detailed within.

Our five students will be on hand to share their experiences in The Open Newsroom, and attendees will be able to envision how they can civically engage with science and research across Rhode Island.
