With over 12,000 square feet of antique radios, televisions, and broadcast equipment, the Museum's collection is one of the largest and finest of its kind in the world. Of course, hardware is only part of the story of broadcasting: it's the personalities who make this equipment come alive and and the museum preserving their history as well in the growing archives are the Pioneer Broadcaster.

The Broadcast Workshop: Live And On The Air
"Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. You are listening to the crystal clear sounds of KPAV!"  So begins another radio show for another excited group of children who will learn the history of electronic communication while creating their own 1960s-style radio broadcasts and participating in a TV quiz show.

free

Gathering Place Recommendations: There is plenty of room in the lobby to gather.

Target Grade Level: The Broadcast Workship is designed for upper elemetary aged children, but the museum staff will adapt the program to suit your group's needs.

Sibling Policy: The museum asks that younger children be closely watched so as to prevent accidental damage to the equipment on display.
