The Space The organization will be located at 32 Cedar Street, just one block off Main Street and the current home of the WBDY-LP Studios. This campaign marks an exciting new chapter of growth and collaboration:<ul><li>WBDY-LP will continue broadcasting independent, volunteer-run community radio.</li><li>Riot Act Books will relocate to the building’s first floor, bringing its radical selection of literature and educational resources to a new home.</li><li>The Basement will transform into a permanent space for community events and media creation.</li></ul>Our Immediate Fundraising Goal To bring this vision to life, we need a stable financial foundation for BMAC so Riot Act and WBDY-LP can concentrate on their primary missions uninterrupted while setting up a long-term financial structure.
