About
Greater Kalamazoo’s community-powered local media
Media That Builds Community
Public Media Network is more than just making videos or shows—it’s about using media to connect people and strengthen our community.
We work with local residents, groups, and nonprofits to create programs that reflect the real issues and ideas that matter in Greater Kalamazoo. From covering city meetings to sharing stories about your neighborhood, we use media to help people understand what’s going on and how they can be part of it.
We make it easy to get involved by offering hands-on training, access to equipment, and platforms to share your stories with the community.
Our Mission & Vision
At Public Media Network, we believe stories have the power to bring people together, spark important conversations, and inspire people to get involved in their community.
We’re here to help people use media to share their ideas, tell local stories, and make a difference in Greater Kalamazoo. By giving you the tools, training, and support you need, we’re building a stronger, more connected community where everyone’s voice matters.
We imagine a future where media helps people get involved, where everyone can share their story, and where we all work together to make our community a better place to live.
