Baltimore Speaks Out

The Baltimore Speaks Out Program (BSO) operates in the fall and spring, in partnership with Middle Schools and provides youth ages 10-15 with free media education right in their own community.

This 10-week after school program teaches young people digital media production, critical thinking, public speaking, team- building, and leadership skills. By the end of the sesion, students in the BSO program will have created their own video about youth and community concerns that will be screened locally and around the world!

Through regular attendance, students are eligible to earn service learning hours for their participation. Recent videos produced by BSOP youth have addressed bullying in school, healthy eating, education reform, and taking care of the environment. Programming sites for 2024-25 are Baltimore Design School and Mt. Royal Elementary/Middle School
