New Circumstances, Same Purpose

Our mission at NPR Presents is to bring public radio out of the studio into theatres and intimate spaces alike – spaces where we can allow you to get closer to the shows and hosts you love.

Right now, circumstances bring us a new, socially distanced reality. We aren't changing our mission – just how we deliver it to you.

Here you'll find a growing guide of virtual events, activities, or just ways to catch a break, from music, culture and comedy to in-depth conversations about the new issues affecting our lives every day.
