WPMC

Woburn Public Media Center is the city’s public, educational and government access television station, describing itself as television for Woburn by the people of Woburn. It programs three PEG channels on the local cable systems, covering City Council and School Committee meetings, some high school sports and other community events. Residents can also post important messages to the community bulletin board.

A volunteer board of directors formed the station in 2005 to serve residents, schools, government bodies and nonprofits. It promotes media access for anyone living or working in Woburn, offering training and free use of video production equipment and channel time so people can produce their own programs, which reflect the interests of individual producers. Classes cover basic digital camcorder operation and nonlinear editing. Becoming a producer is described as easy, though the work takes dedication.
