MN90: Rochester History in 90-Seconds-KRPR
KRPR will collaborate with Ampers to produce and distribute MN90: Rochester History in 90-Seconds, a series of short, fun and engaging stories exploring the history of Rochester and the surrounding area. The highly produced 90-second segments will cover a wide range of topics including sports, politics, agriculture, business, pop culture, entertainment, and much more. To maximize the Legacy funding, these segments will be edited slightly so that they can also be aired by the rest of the Ampers stations as MN90 segments.
$1,775,000 the first year and $1,700,00 the second year are to the Association of Minnesota Public Educational Radio Stations for production and acquisition grants in accordance with Minnesota Statutes section 129D.19.Of this amount, $75,000 the first year is for the Veterans' Voices program to educate and engage communities regarding veterans' contributions, knowledge, skills and experiences with an emphasis on Korean War veterans.
This project will result in an increase in locally and Minnesota-focused content produced by public radio. More Minnesota artists, historians, writers, history makers, and others will have their work showcased through public broadcasting. More Minnesotans of all ages, ethnicities and incomes will have increased access to Minnesota history, specifically the history of Rochester and the surrounding areas.
