WXXI Radio and Television News
begins a month-long focus on the arts in Rochester this January.
Reports on AM 1370 will range from shedding light on smaller arts
organizations in the region and the state of arts education in
schools, to larger issues like funding of the arts and the future of
the arts in the Greater Rochester Area in general. AM 1370 reporters
Peter Iglinski, Bud Lowell, Alex Crichton and Deanna Garcia will be
joining television reporters Julie Philip and Michael Caputo on
stories both for radio and inclusion on WXXI-TV's Friday night public
affairs program, Need to Know.
As one of the last independently owned and operated stations in the market,
WXXI sees the arts as one of Rochester's greatest assets and, in bringing the
focus back on the arts themselves, the hope is that the arts community will
be strengthened as a whole. Other reports in January will include the arts as
an economic development tool, the state community theatre, Garth Fagan's
annual free dance clinic, and art therapy among many others. Tune into AM
1370 during Morning Edition weekdays from 5 a.m. to 10 a.m. and All
Things Considered weekdays from 4 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. for these special reports. Those programs are also simulcast on WRUR-FM 88.5 as part of
WXXI's continued partnership with the University of Rochester. Need to
Know airs Fridays at 8:30 p.m. on WXXI-TV 21 (cable 11) and repeats Sundays at 12:30 p.m.

New Release:
The Peace Warriors of Two Thousand and Three by Carl Chiarenza
“...these powerful collages in 2003, a time when, he says, “the world once again went mad.” Coming out of his sense of importance
and frustration at world events, these collages shed their abstraction and o indeed resemble warriors, but these are warriors for peace.
“Chance,” says Chiarenza, “structured these images as much as chance structured our world. But chance itself is structured by human beings.”…”
