Welcome to BCB!
BARN Community Broadcasting (formerly Bainbridge Community Broadcasting) is a community service by BARN. BCB’s mission is to strengthen community by sharing stories of the people, organizations, events and issues of our island community.
BCB volunteers collaborate to produce podcasts in BARN’s Media Arts recording studio.
At its start in May 2014, BCB was an incubator project of the local nonprofit Sustainable Bainbridge. In 2017 BCB joined BARN in our current facility.
