1 Thank you for your ideas, participation and support. TO OUR COMMUNITY ‘Detroit is the most important city in America.’

At Detroit Public TV, we believe that understanding Detroit’s past, present and future is essential as America considers what’s ahead for its urban areas. We know that the lessons learned here, combined with the spirit and talent of the people here, make for a compelling story. That’s why we’ve launched our “One Detroit” initiative - to use the power of public media to tell Detroit’s very important story.

In these pages, you’ll see how we’re doing that, across media platforms and content areas, and through innovative partnerships. “One Detroit” is just a single aspect of our broader strategic plan, which zooms out to include reporting on Great Lakes and regional issues, building our production business, helping children become ready to learn, and engaging with – and listening to – our supporters, wherever they use our services.

We’ve tackled some big topics this year: Detroit’s resurgence, pre-school education, mental illness, preparing for retirement, invasive species and more, all while bringing you performances from Detroit’s artists, sharing the joy of reading, and presenting the best drama, science and documentaries from PBS.

What’s happening in Detroit is gaining attention. Detroit Public TV is increasingly recognized as being at the forefront of America’s public media providers for the way our local collaborations and multiplatform coverage of important issues are beginning to deliver results.

If Detroit is the most important city in America, our most important partner is you. Thank you for your ideas, participation and support.

Sincerely,

Tom Shafer Rich Homberg Chair President Board of Trustees and Chief Executive Officer 10,000 people watched Detroit Performs Live online in 2015

Before he was five years old, Acer Bowman-Tomlinson made his first contribution to WRCJ 90.9 FM. The now 11-year-old plays piano, oboe, sax and drums and still contributes to the radio station. His mom, Heather, credits WRCJ for inspiring him. “WRCJ is an everyday part of our lives,” she said. “It’s like sprinkles on a cupcake; the cupcake may taste good but the sprinkles make it great.”
