For the past 66 years we've educated, entertained and evolved, from black and white screens in living rooms to glowing screens in pockets, from broadcast to everywhere. Now we’re no longer a traditional channel but an innovative multimedia platform, embodying everything you love about PBS and connecting North Carolinians to their communities and the world at large.

As your statewide public media network, we harness the energy of the UNC System to spark lifelong curiosity; inform communities in times of crisis; engage with complex local and national issues; offer opportunities to learn, and raise the level of discourse around science, arts and humanities for all North Carolinians.

We offer trusted PBS news, programming and resources and we’ll always represent our state’s people, stories and culture.
