Dharma Dailey and Galen Joseph-Hunter will present the Greene/Columbia community radio project, as part of the Germantown Community Farm's Fall Party & Skill Share weekend. The Greene/Columbia community radio project will enable people in the two upstate New York counties to teach each other skills in radio production, community journalism, radio art, and other media-making. It is a space to build a "community of communities" -- bringing together a range of discussions and creativities from across the two counties. free103point9 will first create an internet radio station, while developing the organization and partnerships for an FM station we hope to soon be awarded, to broadcast local content across much of Greene and Columbia counties. Watch for a continuing workshops this fall throughout the area. Eventually this project will broadcast local town meetings, high school sports championships, as well as local performances, lectures, workshops, and all sorts of radio art.
