make known
Bring to light
Make known means to reveal or disclose information—to bring something into others' awareness that wasn't there before.
The phrase has a slightly formal or official quality: The winner will be made known at noon.
You can make known your intentions, your feelings, or facts that were previously hidden: She made it known that she wouldn't tolerate further delays.
