Episode 91 - Appalshop 50th Anniversary

On this week’s episode, we welcome Alex Gibson and Alexandra Werner-Winslow of Appalashop in Whitesburg, KY. Alex serves as the Executive Director and Alexandra is the Communications Director. Founded in 1969, Appalshop has often been said to be the voice and vision of the people of Appalachia. It “houses media production and training facilities in film and video, a community radio station, a 150-seat theater, art gallery, and regional archive of over 4,000 hours of film, audio recordings, and still images.” In October, Appalshop will celebrate its 50th anniversary.
