On March 30th, four members from Project Pulse, along with author Terra Koerpel of the book series ShowSmarts, took part in a 45-minute filming of the show "In Touch with Small Business" on Pittsburgh Community Television (PCTV). PCTV strives to offer an outlet for local non-profit agencies to publicize their platforms or produce their own shows connected to their initiatives.

Carl Knoblock of the Small Business Administration asked the group insightful questions such as how Project Pulse began, what the project did for Terra, and the different obstacles we ran into. More importantly, Terra was able to voice her story to the community, emphasizing the importance of keeping the performing arts in schools and the valuable learning experiences students receive from their involvement in the performing arts. This was the perfect conclusion to the year's project, as every was able to reflect on the last couple of months of working with Terra and her book. She has been such a joy to work with, and we are excited to see what she has in store for her second book of the ShowSmarts series. Everyone involved had an informative experience, learning about the filming and media processes.

Be sure to watch the show to see how we answered these questions and to hear more about Terra's initiative!
