About this Event
The Future of Public Media presented by AZPM
Join us for an enlightening discussion about public media as stations like AZPM adapt to a future without federal funding.
Hear from AZPM CEO Jack Gibson; AZPM Radio Program Director Nicole Cox; Arizona Illustrated host Tom McNamara; AZPM classical music director and weekday morning announcer James Reel; and AZPM Chief Original Content Officer Bohdan Zachary.
Together, they will discuss how AZPM — along with public media organizations nationwide — is adapting to a broadcasting landscape without federal funding. Even amid these challenges, AZPM continues to strengthen its commitment to local journalism and community service by:
- Expanding its award-winning news team as other media outlets face downsizing
- Broadcasting trusted programming on NPR 89.1 along with expertly curated playlists on Classical 90.5 and 24/7 streaming on Jazz 89.1 HD2
- Featuring content from partners including PBS, BBC, American Public Television and others.
- Continuing to produce local originals such as Arizona Illustrated, Arizona Spotlight, Arizona Science, and Navigating Our Financial Times, plus a new series that celebrates creativity across public media, State of the Arts.
We hope you’ll join us for this important and engaging discussion!
