Community Matters
Be a Part of the Evolution
We aim to generate and facilitate programing that highlights and enriches Derry's local culture by being a creative hub for the community's media engagement and enjoyment.
We offer many ways for individuals and groups to partner in featuring the stories and events relevant to Derry that inform, inspire, enlighten and entertain our community. Pairing the power of our broadcast and production technology with the creative energy of our team, we facilitate increased coverage of local events and opportunity of engagement.
DerryCAM works to increase awareness and enhance community pride and culture. Programs produced by residents provide an entertaining local viewpoint on what is happening in our community. Among others, The Veteran's Forum, Derry Open Mic, It's your Move, Mental Health Matters, and Derry Horizons are proudly produced or in development at our station.
Why DerryCAM?
In an evolving media landscape, we serve the community by offering increased opportunities for engagement with the Access Center such as the expansion of our Workshop Series, MediaLAB, internship opportunities, and other ways of getting involved. We are updating our equipment, staffing and training models, as well as expanding the use of social media, streaming, On-Demand, radio and other emerging digital media production and distribution solutions to better serve the community.
F.A.Q's
Thanks for asking! DerryCAM provides lots of opportunities for volunteering and learning, so we try to provide a good environment for someone younger to really get involved. You may be as young as 15 years old with parental consent for a contributor, but 16 with parental consent for Interning. 18 years and older do not need parental consent and qualify for both positions.
