Whidbey AIR Vision Statement

“Whidbey AIR aims to encapsulate in programming the cultural, multi generational, arts and entertainment opportunities on Whidbey Island in a broadcast medium accessible to everyone in multiple audio mediums by creating a truly community based radio station.”

This translates into several actions.

First – Whidbey AIR is open to all members of the community. You could be a Whidbey AIR broacaster email us at feedback@kwparadio.org

Second – Whidbey AIR should be reflective of the community and its interests. Whidbey AIR invites radio programs on any and all topics of interest to Whidbey Islanders

Third – Whidbey AIR should be participative in the community. Whidbey AIR will, within the constraints of its resources, provide coverage of local events and activities such as festivals and public celebrations.

As part of the accessibility element, we are runing a series of training meetings – get in touch if you are interested.
