One of Litquake's faves giovanna shared her family transit story with BART Connects. buff.ly/4937GIT Any takers out there with BART memories to share? Email a short summary to BART Storyteller Michelle Robertson at [email protected] Michelle Robertson

We're hosting a poetry contest to get youth excited about transit and to share their work in our cool Short Edition EN story dispensers! Encourage the local teens (ages 13-19) to submit: bart.gov/bartlines

We've learned that BART means a lot of different things to a lot of different people. For lifelong rider Ed Cabrera, BART means bonding time with his teenaged daughter, Elyse. The duo take BART all over the Bay Area to bond and hang out when Elyse is home from college.

On BART headed to my first PublicTransportation conference. I’ll be on a storytelling panel talking about the BART Connects rider story series. The timing is serendipitous - in 12 days I’ll have two years at BART under my belt!

Speaking at #aptamcx24 was so much fun. And the room was packed! The transit community has truly welcomed me with open arms. It’s been an amazing journey ❤️

At select BART stations, kiosks offer riders a literary invitation. After three years, more than 38,000 stories have been dispensed and the program is expanding. BART is now calling on the Bay Area’s teens to add their poetry to the kiosks: trib.al/UkjqCcs

So happy you love it! We are expanding to more stations and we have a teen poetry contest right now to help fill the dispensers with local content. bart.gov/news/articles/…

Come listen at DT Berkeley Station today! It is a super unique experience to hear Bach/classical music in a station. I look forward to Bach in the Subways every year.

Over the past few months, (((jennifer easton))) and I have had the pleasure of getting to know Janet Bennett, a midcentury artist who's created many iconic public artworks across the nation, including the tile murals at our Mission stations. Read about her: bart.gov/news/articles/…

As you’re traveling on BART this weekend, listen for announcements recorded by local children for Autism Acceptance Month! They will bring a smile to your face 😊. Here's audio of Lucy's awesome announcement. “What’s up, BARTy people!” 🎉

Love the new BART “Transit Saves the planet” ads! Like this one at 12th Street: “Every day, BART riders save 52,000 gallons of gas from being burned.” Ride BART, save the planet. 🚝🌎

After 33 years as a Train Operator, Linda Yee-Sugaya, better known as Mama Linda, has seen a lot. She’s watched the old trains become the new; stations built and BART lines lengthen; and thousands of faces stream past the windows of her train. Story: shorturl.at/bTU58

Atsushi Goto might be the biggest BART fan in Japan. 🧵

Today is the 34th anniversary of the ADA, which protects the rights of those with disabilities. More than 7% of BART riders have a disability, including Steven Howell and Vanessa Castro. Says Steven: "[BART] showed me there is life out there." #ADA34 @adanational

Eric Mazariegos's earliest BART memory is riding trains to eye doctor appointments in San Francisco with his mom. He was 8 when he started losing his vision, and it took doctors two years to figure out what was happening. That meant lots of appointments – and lots of BART.
