Please take a few minutes this is our welcome video
The Multi-Media Collaborative is a non-profit organization originally established by historic First Lutheran Church to empower Saint Paul's Eastside communities by helping its residents improve channels of communication to learn about, understand and strengthen the multicultural society in which we live. We do this through four forms of media: radio, television broadcasts, film and the Internet.

News and Events
This Summer, Studio 209 is taking a small breather, we have been using Studio 1 at SPNN and mastering it's use. Using Studio one will mean several things for us. First our shows will be done using a three or four camera shoot instead of the one we used in Studio 209. This will give us a more professional look and feel to our shows. We have gone to a different format for the shows as well. Instead of 2 1/2 hour shows, we are shooting 3 20 minute shows instead. We have taken on a new segment devoted to homeless issues called Voices for Change Hosted by Ted Dennis. This will allow Luis and Jonathon a small break and have a larger variety of guests for Voices. We are also doing a Spanish Segment called Voces De Mujeres with Yvette. She will tackle the area of Lation Women and their issues.
The MMC is going through many changes and growing pains. Hopefully the end result will yield a better show for all involved. Please bear with us as we make these much needed changes.
On August 25, Steve Date from Minn Post produced a show about the MMC. Click Here to watch the video.
