Rockport Community Television

Rockport Community Television, operating as part of 1623 Studios, is the community media organization serving Rockport, Massachusetts, a small Essex County coastal town on Cape Ann north of Gloucester known for its art colony, fishing heritage, and dramatic granite coastline, providing PEG access television for this distinctive North Shore community.

The organization provides public access cable television for Rockport residents, covering town government meetings and offering community members the opportunity to produce and broadcast locally focused programming that reflects the extraordinary scenic and cultural character of this small artists' colony at the tip of Cape Ann.

Rockport residents rely on community television for the selectboard and town meeting coverage and local programming that keeps this tight-knit Cape Ann community - a town where the fishing legacy, the Motif Number 1 red fishing shack, the granite quarry history, and an active arts tradition define a civic identity unlike any other on the North Shore - connected to its own governance and community life.
