On Thursday, August 26 at 6 p.m. at the pagoda observatory hill at Patterson Park, the public is invited to join WYPR in celebrating Out of the Blocks [3] and a decade of Baltimore stories, told one block at a time. The event, which is free and open to the public, will bring together the creators, participants and fans to say farewell to the long-running podcast, which drops its final episode on August 16. 

Event attendees will have a unique opportunity to meet the people whose stories they’ve heard on Out of the Blocks, to talk with producers Aaron Henkin and Wendel Patrick about how and why they made the show, and to learn some useful tips for DIY interviewing projects.
