About Me


WITT Community Radio 91.9FM is a 501c3 not-for-profit organization that is completely run by volunteers and is funded by generous donations. WITT's mission is to provide unparalleled levels of access to the studio, which sets it apart from any other radio station in Central Indiana. The full-powered community radio station, slated to air in the fall of 2008, will offer an adventurous mix of music (tentatively entitled our Open Air Mix), local issue coverage, live performing arts broadcasts, national and international broadcasts, Pacifica Radio broadcasts, radio theatre, storytelling, children and teen's programming, and more!
WITT will air in the Fall of '08!! Please consider making a donation to WITT now! Your financial support today can make WITT come on the air soon with state of the art equipment. Don't forget that WITT is a 501c3 not-for-profit, so all donations are tax deductible!
Volunteers are also needed to help spread the word about WITT, assist in outreach events, and later in '08, to assist with the station. Please contact us at [email protected] about volunteering!
The WITT Studio and Community Outreach Facility at 911 Mass Ave was donated by The Bike Line. After the grand opening on June 21st, the space will serve as a community outreach facility and is available for private and public events, including, but not limited to: art shows, concerts, receptions, conferences, and classes. WITT invites all community members interested in the space to visit us on June 21st, our opening day.
June 21st is Grand Opening for WITT Community Radio 91.9 FM's Studio and Community Outreach Facility on Mass Ave!Please join us to celebrate the opening of our new studio and community outreach facility! We are hosting an open house on Saturday, June 21st. It is an all day celebration starting with a community bike ride on the Monon Trail. We'll start at The Bike Line (located at 6520 Cornell Ave) in Broad Ripple (registration at 10:00am) and ride to WITT's new studio space on Mass Ave (911 Massachusetts Ave). The ride is approximately 6.5 miles (one way) and the pace will be very casual, so even the most novice riders can do it!
Don't like to ride bikes? That's ok! Meet us at our new studio and community outreach facility at 911 Mass Ave! Live performances by great local DJs, food, art exhibition and sale begins at 11:30 am!
WITT Wants YOU! WITT is looking for community members to join us on our bike ride. If you are a bike enthusiast or community radio supporter, please join us on our journey from The Bike Line to Mass Ave. For more information, contact [email protected].
