The 2022 World Press Institute Fellowship Program will be stopping in Grand Marais at the end of March and will take part in a public forum on journalism at the Arrowhead Center for the Arts. The public roundtable discussion is set for Tuesday, March 29 at 7 p.m. and will feature a question-and-answer session with the nine visiting journalists. Moderating the event will be Marja Erickson, board president of the Cook County Historical Society (event sponsor).
The program this year has journalists from Argentina, Bangladesh, Bulgaria, China (Hong Kong), Finland, Germany, India, Iran and Nigeria. Participants are stopping here during their three-week Minnesota tour before heading out on a five-week tour of the United States. While the journalists get a taste of rural America during their stop in Grand Marais, the event gives area residents and visitors a chance to gather insight and perspectives of journalists from around the world.
The event at the Arrowhead Center of the Arts is free to the public.
