Join ACM Northeast in celebrating Community Media Day on Tuesday, October 20!

Community media gives local voices a platform, empowers storytelling, and connects communities by making media production and resources accessible to all. From local programming and government coverage to creative projects and community partnerships, there's so much to celebrate!

📣 How are you celebrating Community Media Day? If your station or organization has anything exciting planned, we'd love to hear about it! Share your events, projects, photos, or stories with us so we can help spread the word and celebrate the amazing work happening across the Northeast.

💙 Let's show everyone why community media matters!
