Looking back on 10 years of cooperative media
Celebrating the last decade of the Center for Cooperative Media
This year, the Center for Cooperative Media celebrated its 10th birthday at Montclair State University. We outlined at the beginning of this year some of the steps we planned to take to mark the occasion, including:
- A piece of commissioned art from a local NJ-based artist
- A series of blog posts on what NJ local news needs over the next decade
- A convening to celebrate with our partners and funders
We also decided to put together a brief video presentation that recaps the last ten years of work and accomplishments from Center staff and partners over the years.
Here’s the final product:
Here’s to another 10 years of cooperative media!
