Falmouth In Focus: Year in Review! On this special Year in Review edition of Falmouth in Focus, we take a look back at some of the stories that shaped 2024. From the devastating Main Street fire in January, which brought the community together in the face of tragedy... to the incredible dedication of a local couple, honored for their tireless commitment to Falmouth’s schools and community. Plus, we’ll highlight the ongoing work of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, including one scientist being recognized with a prestigious Genius Grant. All this and much more as we celebrate another incredible year in Falmouth. Featured: @fishingforamission, Cape Cod Cape Verdean Museum and Cultural Center, Belonging To Each Other, Falmouth Public Schools - Massachusetts, @falmouthveteranscommunity, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), Falmouth Commodores, Cape and Islands Veterans Outreach Center many more!

Falmouth Community Television (FCTV) is hosting PSA Days at the Falmouth Community Media Center throughout November for any nonprofit organization that would like a short public service announcement (PSA) produced by FCTV staff. FCTV is offering this service to assist local organizations and community groups in publicizing their mission, events, or services.
All PSAs will be recorded in the FCTV studio, edited by FCTV staff and cablecast on Public Channel 6, also viewable on FCTV’s social media and website. In addition, FCTV encourages groups to use these PSAs for their own promotional purposes including posting on their websites, social media, or email marketing.
Participants will work with FCTV Staff to prepare a short script no longer than two minutes in length to be recorded. Participants will also work with staff to identify supplementary photos, logos, or video content needed to create an engaging finished product. Participants will then record the PSA in the studio and leave with a finished video for their organization.
The fees to participate are $25.00 for FCTV Organizational Members and $125.00 for Non-Organizational Members.
To schedule an appointment to discuss your organization’s PSA, please contact Kurt Achin, Membership and Outreach Coordinator, via email ([email protected]) or by phone, 508-457-0800, ext. 104. All scheduling will be done on a first-come, first-served basis. Please reserve your spot before they fill up.
Join us as the polls close for FCTV's live coverage of Election Day in Falmouth! We will be getting results from the precincts, insights from the polling places, and expert analysis, including special guest Terry Szuplat, former Obama speechwriter and Falmouth native!
The Gallery at FCTV invites artists of all ages, backgrounds, and skill levels to submit their artworks exploring the theme “Paws, Claws, and What Have You?”
This open-ended theme, celebrating the importance and love of animals and nature, encourages interpretations related to animals, nature, pets, mythical creatures, or any imaginative creation featuring paws, claws, or other intriguing elements. Submissions can include paintings, drawings, sculptures, digital art, photography, and mixed media.
