Community & Fundraising Events

WTCI hosts and participates in community events throughout the year as part of our mission. We welcome everyone to our community events and encourage everyone's participation. We also hosts special events throughout the year to raise funds to help support our mission of enriching lives through quality programs and services that educate, engage, and inspire a lifetime of learning and exploration. 

Join us for our series of family & community workshops at Carver Community Center and East Chattanooga Community Center featuring shared meals, hands-on learning, books & games, and take-home activities! CLICK THIS LINK to register today.

Our Ready To Learn Initiative is focused on connecting children’s media and learning environments to build key skills for success in school and life, including functional literacy, critical thinking, and collaboration, as well as showing them career options in age-appropriate ways. The program is part of the CPB-PBS Ready To Learn Initiative, funded by the U.S. Department of Education.

Join us for a free, family-friendly community celebration from 10am to 2pm on Saturday, April 26, 2025 at WTCI PBS, featuring fun activities and PBS KIDS characters.

Kids will meet and greet with Lyla from "Lyla in the Loop" and Daniel Tiger and enjoy fun activities presented by our neighbors!

Signature Sponsors for this event are Tennnessee American Water and BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee.
