About ON BEING PROJECT

The On Being Project produces award-winning audio and digital programming — most notably the podcast and radio program On Being with Krista Tippett — that explores meaning, faith, science, poetry, and the arts through long-form conversations and resources that invite reflection and moral imagination. As a donor-facing 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in Saint Paul, MN (EIN 46-2775553 verified against public tax filings and state charity registration), the organization has expanded beyond weekly broadcast work into On Being Studios, the Lab for the Art of Living, Poetry Unbound, and a slate of gatherings, fellowships, and practical tools aimed at accompaniment, listening practices, and social healing for a broad public audience.
