2012 Grassroots Radio Conference
at the Urbana-Champaign Independent Media Center
July 26th-July 29th, 2012

Interested in using media to transform your community? The Grassroots Radio
Conference (GRC) celebrates the vibrant and democratic medium of local
community-driven radio. We bring together radio operators, media artists,
community activists, engineers, and ordinary citizens from across the
nation to learn, discuss, brainstorm, and build. Due to last year’s
historic Local Community Radio Act, the government will be issuing brand
new community radio station licenses all across the country to nonprofits
and their partnering community groups, including for the first time in
major cities! To that end, the GRC will feature an LP-FM Clinic to help in
the process of starting your own LP-FM station and helping existing
stations adapt to the digital age. This year’s GRC will celebrate RFU
(Radio Free Urbana) raising its new radio tower and the UC-IMC becoming an
anchor institution in Urbana-Champaign’s new public broadband system.  Stay
tuned to grassrootsradioconference.org <http://grc.ucimc.org/> for more
information as the conference approaches. To get involved, contact Austin
at austinmccann at ucimc.org.
