WMHT remains undaunted in our commitment to classical music on the radio in this community.
WMHT is a unique resource, offering the profound and inspiring world of classical music freely to the entire community. Your membership is the bedrock of WMHT, it always has been, since 1972. Right now, your support is more vital than ever. The elimination of all federal funding for public media means that WMHT has to replace about 17% of our budget this year and every year for the foreseeable future. We’re committed to doing more with less, but you can ensure our future.
