Abstract	Mathematics outreach typically consists of community events that show the exciting applications of mathematics, particularly to K-12 students. The goal of mathematics outreach events is to increase student interest and involvement in mathematics-related activities. Students start to develop a stigma against mathematics by the end of elementary school. Outreach events allow an opportunity for students to discover an enjoyment and interest in mathematics along with reducing the stigma associated with mathematics. My goal is to learn a bit more about the different perspectives when creating an outreach event and how I can apply these ideas about outreach to my future teaching practice in high school mathematics. Keywords: mathematics outreach, stereotypes, STEM pipeline, diversity, equity, outreach
