APM's History

Atlantic Public Media was incorporated as a non-profit organization in 1993 (originally named Cape and Islands Community Public Radio) to create a new public radio service for Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket. For seven years, founder Jay Allison and a band of zealots pushed this along at the local and federal level.In 2000, with WGBH-Boston supporting and adopting our effort, WCAI and WNAN finally went on the air. Amen.

APM has now evolved into a production and training organization, focusing on public media, particularly public radio, with projects like Transom.org and many others.

    A Gift
    In the early going, photographer Joel Meyerowitz, bless his heart, gave us the use of this image... to anticipate our signal crossing the water. This image, and the single word, "LISTEN," are now the signature of WNAN and WCAI.
