WQED Multimedia

WQED changes lives by creating and sharing outstanding public media that educates, entertains and inspires.

WQED was America's first community-supported television station and went on the air on April 1, 1954. The station is part of the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) and airs the national program schedule as well as locally-produced programming that serves the community. No other station produces the volume of local programming that WQED does. Today, WQED is educational public media with four television programming streams: WQED-TV; WQED World; WQED Create Channel; and WQED Showcase; three radio streams: WQED-FM 89.3; WQEJ-FM 89.7/Johnstown; The Pittsburgh Concert Channel at WQED-FM HD-2 and www.wqed.org/fm online provide WQED content for free to all residents in the viewing and listening area, and online around the world; local and national television and radio productions; WQED Interactive, and iQ: smartmedia, WQED's Educational initiative.
