Our story is just beginning

Our Story

Stories are central to our work at Next American Media Makers – learning and sharing them, recording and producing them. As with almost everything worthwhile, a story truly comes alive when our own narrative shines through to connect us with our audience.

PROGRAMS

We galvanize the power of media, create positive community change, and help build the next generation of Media Makers through our five program areas below:
