Welcome to the PortMedia Web site!

PortMedia is Newburyport’s award-winning community media center.  We operate Newburyport’s Comcast Channels 9 & 10.

As a member of PortMedia, you can:

• Make a television show about nearly any topic you want

• How to produce and direct an in-studio television show
• Borrow our equipment to create your television show

• And so much more!

You’ll find a lot of information about PortMedia on our Web site, especially in our FAQ, but the best way to learn is to come visit.
