Prometheus Radio Project Barn Raising
In the spirit of neighbors pulling together to put up a new building,
Prometheus gathers low power radio applicants, journalists, radio engineers, students, lawyers, musicians, activists and folks from across the Northwest to raise the antenna mast, build the studio... and flip on the station switch for Spokane's Thin Air Radio, one of Washington State's first successful LPFM applicants. Prometheus Barn Raisers allow new programmers to meet and new stations
to compare notes on fundraising and equipment. In addition, broadcast professionals can share their skills with the new low power radio station licensees. In the process, participants gain hands-on experience and learn
from a wide range of workshops and classes on radio production and media
issues.The events are also a chance for radio activists to plan the course
for future media activism and continue the fight to put the media into the hands of the people and communities.
