Every journalist has that project they'd love to tackle if they had the time and resources: A tool for planning and slotting stories that connects to existing systems ... a statewide reporting tool that gathers and summarizes data from multiple sources ... an internal way to automatically measure stories' impacts across their lifespan ... a way to gather meeting notes from disparate government organizations ... the lists are endless.

That's where the Minnesota Journalism Center comes in. We're inviting journalists from across the state to join us at the 158th Annual Minnesota Newspaper Association Convention for an Idea Development Workshop. You'll work with the team at Hacks/Hackers, Minnesota Journalism Center, computer scientists at the University of Minnesota and fellow journalists to develop and prototype your wildest and most useful ideas, leading into weekend advanced sessions on campus.

Prior to the session, join us for lunch with keynote speaker Dr. Craig Packer, founder of the University of Minnesota Lion Center. Noon (ticketed event).

NOTE: Non-MNA members must pay by credit card. Invoicing is not available.
