Classic Arts Showcase - More Fresh Programming - To Nurture Spokane Community

For this and more info on available fresh PEG programs see:

Classic Arts Showcase is another free satellite channel that other PEG channels use to provide fresh programming to their viewers.
http://www.classicartsshowcase.org/

This would be a great addition for late night viewers, early morning viewers and for random fill throughout the day.
World class arts to inspire Spokane viewers - much better than endless repeats - and it is free.



"Classic MTV"  Launched in 1994, Classic Arts Showcase is a free cable television program designed to bring the classic arts experience to the largest audience possible by providing video clips of the arts in hopes that we may tempt you, the viewer, to go out and feast from the buffet of arts available in your community.


How can I get my station to air CAS more often?
CAS is available 24 hours a day, but each station that downlinks us airs us for as long or as short as they want. If you'd like to see us on the air more often, or at different times, the best way to make that happen is for you and your friends to petition your local channel. They always listen to viewer comments and requests.

How often do you repeat a show?
CAS is a weekly show. Each week we edit together a new 8-hour show, broken down into one hour blocks, featuring approximately 150 new classic art clips. That's more new weekly programming than any other show on television. We then send out our show via satellite three times a day (that's 24 hours), free and unscrambled, to individuals, cable providers and broadcasters all over North and South America. Anyone with a large dish can pick us up. Each day we randomly shuffle the one-hour blocks. Different stations downlink us at different times. Some air us for only an hour, some all day. So depending on how often and when CAS is scheduled in your area you could very well see repeat clips within a single week. But don't worry, there's always a completely new eight-hour show every Friday night.


How long have you been on the air?
Since May of 1994, and we plan to continue for many more years to come.

Classic Arts Showcase broadcasts 24-hours from Satellite. We're available free of charge to PEG channels, PBS, basic cable tiers and non-commercial broadcasters (just fill out the Application).
