We’re moving!
The Marfa Public Radio network is leaving its current headquarters and moving to the 106 block of East San Antonio Street in Marfa. Renovation at the new space begins this week! We’re scheduled to open the new studios later this fall.
This quick relocation is a result of downtown redevelopment that led to an early end to our lease at the current studios.
Membership contributions are essential to making this move a success – your financial support goes straight to construction costs, equipment upgrades and building a legacy for independent journalism in Far West Texas.
