Starting Labor Day (Sept. 7th), MAIN and WPVM will host a fund drive (online and on-air) to support and celebrate independent music, community journalism, and good-paying, local green jobs. Premiums include five pairs of tickets to see Leonard Cohen LIVE! in concert at Thomas Wolfe Auditorium on Nov. 1.
We also will welcome MAIN’s new Media Manager, KP Whaley. You’ll hear interviews with national leaders in independent media and the green jobs movement, as well as local voices telling their stories about why MAIN and WPVM are vital to their lives and businesses. We’ll have local music live in the studio and (keep your fingers crossed) maybe even an interview with Leonard Cohen himself!
Why don’t you join us? We need volunteers to help answer the phones and take pledges. You can meet KP and other on-air volunteers in person, see the re-furbished WPVM studios, and help MAIN spread the word about the value of local, independent media in WNC.

Have a great week-end,
The MAIN/WPVM Fund Drive Team
