CalMatters 2023 events are bringing journalism directly to community members
In summary
The in-person and virtual CalMatters events this year will serve as unique gathering points for civically-engaged Californians.
CalMatters is restarting public events this year, with Sacramento Sessions in our CalMatters Studio two blocks from the state Capitol (and also, conveniently online) and CalMatters Live events up and down the state.
Every day we inform Californians with in-depth journalism across our website, newsletters, mobile app channels, appearances on public radio stations and TV news programs and by sharing our work with more than 250 media partners.
These gatherings allow us to deliver live journalism, with real-time conversations that dig into California’s most important issues to explore solutions.
“It’s exciting to bring live journalism to communities across California,” said CalMatters CEO Neil Chase, “because in-person conversations make a difference when you discuss important issues with the people affected and the people who can implement solutions. Our expanded program of events this year means we’re able to inform more Californians and learn from them at the same time.”
We’d love to have you in the room, so please check out our calendar and sign up today.
Here’s what’s coming up:
