MinneCulture Presents: Inside Minneapolis’ Giant Pencil Festival

We have something special to share with you today - a story from the On Our Minds podcast and the PBS Student Reporting Lab. Reporter Divya Thamman brings us the story of a unique annual tradition in Minneapolis… in celebration of a pencil.

And if you liked that story, check out this season of the On Our Minds podcast. It’s an audio road trip around the country featuring student reported stories about the drag scene in Missouri to finding wonder in the regularity of life at… a Dunkin Donuts in New Jersey.
