About the Conference

Each year the Alliance for Community Media hosts an International Conference and Trade Show - four days of training sessions, workshops, trade show, and hospitality events. Attendees will receive up-to-date information and hands-on experience on subjects including engineering, production and technology, legislative and legal, management and administration, professional and volunteer development, community building, media literacy, and more. The Alliance is a national non-profit membership organization that educates and advocates on behalf of community media. The Alliance provides peer professional training and community activist networking to professionals and volunteers who work in Public, Educational and Governmental (PEG) access through its national and regional conferences, website and list serves, quarterly journal, member newsletters, publications, videos, legislative and legal assistance.

The ACM promotes political, regulatory and industry support through advocacy, public relations and grassroots organizing. It facilitates networking and education among people and organizations involved with community media, primarily through its national and regional conventions, and various special interest groups (such as for trainers, volunteer producers, and government access centers).

AMP is helping to promote and sponsor this conference, which will involve an industry trade show, social events, speakers, a festival and other special events.
