As part of the reimagined 2020 festival, radio plays, spoken word poetry, prose and more are making their way into homes through EMFM 104.7.
EMFM is one of 25 Victorian community radio stations broadcasting the Radio Reimagined program until October 31.
“We are thrilled to be able to partner with the Victorian Seniors Festival,” EMFM 104.7 treasurer John Vincent said.
“As a community radio station, we love catering to the needs of all of our listeners. It’s great to ensure all seniors across the state feel included in the festivities and have access to entertainment.”
Radio Reimagined allows all seniors to access the festival from the safety and comfort of their homes, in a way that suits them.
“The Victorian Seniors Festival: Radio Reimagined was created to make sure all seniors, regardless of computer access or technology skills, could listen in and enjoy the variety of content available.” Radio Reimagined producer Rob Gebert said.
“This was especially important to all Victorians, particularly our one million seniors, to reduce any isolation created by the pandemic’s restrictions.
“It’s been a joy to produce the various programs as we bring to life various music features, radio plays and spoken word programs.”
You can listen to the Radio Reimagined programs on 104.7FM or online at radioemfm.org.au
