Maine Radio Project

The Maine Radio Project is a non-profit, free form internet radio station supporting the creative community of Portland, Maine and beyond. The Maine Radio Project provides a non-commercial platform for unique, locally produced programming that is reflective of the diverse talents and interests of local broadcasters and listeners. The Maine Radio Project gives an online voice to creative people in the area including musicians, artists, journalists, galleries and venues as well as provide a centralized location for performance listings in the area.

The brainchild of local artist and Syliva Kania Gallery owner Jessica Lauren Lipton, the Maine Radio Project was conceived to fill a free-form radio void in Portland. Lipton’s idea began to develop with the help of Marc and Gina Bartholomew (Acadia Recording Studios) and a small group of people coming from various Portland music and arts backgrounds. The Maine Radio Project went live for the first time on October 17th, 2010, broadcasting in person from the newly re-opened State Theatre in Portland.
