Our Hour Luncheon

Join us in Philly to connect with fellow BIPOC attendees
Our Hour: A Gathering for BIPOC in Public Media

Wednesday, July 9, 2025 | 12:15 p.m. – 1:45 p.m. | Free (RSVP Required)

This year’s Our Hour Luncheon (formally known as the Fundraisers of Color Luncheon) provides a space to network with other Professionals of Color working within every area of public media. More details are forthcoming.

Here are some testimonials from last year’s luncheon attendees:

  • Fun and re-energizing, good reminder of the diversity in public media and the power that we have.
  • I loved sitting and chatting with good company – it felt like a safe space to talk about mental health and struggles we wouldn’t bring up in a wider group setting.
  • I loved meeting new people and what seemed to be people my age versus being a different generation. I was able to relate with so many individuals and receive so much advice on serious issues I am dealing with at my station.

RSVPs to the luncheon will open in May.

Our Hour is made possible with generous support from PRX.

Please note: This event is designed as a space for BIPOC, biracial, and multiracial individuals to openly discuss our experiences working in the public media industry.
