One year ago, Congress defunded public media. Now that we're 100% community funded, please become a sustaining member or increase your existing membership today.

More rain is on the horizon for Southern California, but there's still time to get out and explore this weekend first.

Explore diverse marketplaces in Watts or Pico Rivera. Trek to Culver City for the CicLAvia 2024 Season Launch Party. Let your kids explore artistry for Presidents' Day. And if you're feeling outdoorsy, relax and try your hand at bird-watching in Arcadia or enjoy a foodie tour in Venice.

One year ago, Congress voted to defund public media, eliminating a critical $1.7 million from our budget every year going forward. But they couldn’t silence us, and we’re not going anywhere.

Instead, we answer to you and our communities. We are free to follow facts wherever they lead and to hold power to account without fear or favor.
