About MCTV


Manchester Community Television will be the accessible Media Source of choice to celebrate the Greater Manchester Area and promote a sense of socially responsible, multicultural, multigenerational connectedness to ensure the highest level of educated, responsible citizenship.

MCTV is a collaborative initiative between the City of Manchester and the Manchester School District.

For the past 17 years, MCTV has been funded by the Board of Mayor and Aldermen and administered through the Manchester School District. Through this unique collaboration of City resources, MCTV cost-effectively provides the award winning programming you want and the high quality educational opportunities our City students deserve.

As Manchester has grown over the past seventeen years, the needs of the city have grown as well. In response to the changing needs of our growing community, Manchester Community Television now has a staff of five full time employees, including certified education staff and other professionals with advanced communication and technology degrees.

Today, MCTV programming is better and broader than ever before, producing over 1,000 hours of community based programming for the city of Manchester and televising hundreds of local government meetings. MCTV is THE way in which all city residents can have unfiltered access to their local government and quickly learn what is going on in our community- through the dedicated efforts of MCTV, city residents simply have to turn on their television sets to Channel 16 or 22, or download a file from www.nhmanchtv.org to see their government unfiltered and in action.

More than government meetings, Manchester Community Television also offers other informative community programming. Programming for senior citizens, bilingual programming in both English and Spanish, as well as programming for non-profit organizations, local officials and political candidates are just a few of the innovative programs being brought to you by MCTV.

Manchester Community Television is your connection to your community.
