WYSO Community Voices at FilmDayton Festival


WYSO presents Community Voices at the FilmDayton Festival
Sunday, August 26, 12 Noon
Black Box Improv Theatre
518 E. Third St. Dayton, Ohio 45402

Community Voices is all about getting local voices on the air. WYSO recruited a class of local people and taught them how to record essays, poems and commentaries. FilmDayton is thrilled to partner with 91.3 FM in bringing these stories to the public as part of the “ScreenLESS Screening.” $5


Check out the Audio Documentaries that you'll hear:
