ChicopeeTV

Government Department

ChicopeeTV is a place where the community of Chicopee, Massachusetts comes together to form moving pictures.  We produce content that documents the lives of the people who live here -- from government meetings that decide our city's future, to the major events in our students' lives and within our community, to creative art of narrative, documentary and experimental forms.

In addition to the traditional community-news-based fare that public access facilities are known to produce, we go further... We produce episodic content that specifically features the arts: CENTER STAGE - a serialized program that features Massachusetts-based bands; SPOTLIGHT ONTHE ARTS - a program that showcases visual arts that's produced in collaboration with the Chicopee Cultural Council; etc.

Using our state-of-the-art studio and suite of field equipment, the members of the Chicopee community can produce their own original media content or take part in the content we produce. We provide media training, facility and channel access to promote media literacy so that citizens of Chicopee may exercise their First Amendment Right to free speech.

ChicopeeTV serves Charter Cable subscribers in Chicopee through Channels 191, 192 & 193, as well as viewers on YouTube, Vimeo and Facebook well beyond Chicopee.
