Public Radio Makers Quest 2.0
The Association of Independents in Radio (AIR) will produce a competitive process similar to the search conducted by the Public Radio Talent Quest in the Talent Quest 2.0: Public Media Makers initiative. The program will identify innovative and diverse producers, develop their digital capacity, and create distribution models that go beyond the public radio airwaves. AIR will disburse $400,000 in grants to at least 12 producers, underscoring the importance of the individual "maker" in the digital age.
