Meet The Studio Sisters at Leaf Studios

Leaf Studios is our next Creative Collective to be awarded a FREE month of On Air Announcements, as part of Grants for Community funded by Yarra Ranges Council.

"We are six studio sisters who call the frequently foggy hills of the Dandenong Ranges home.  You can find us and our little shop at “Leaf Studios”, nestled in sleepy, leafy Kallista.  Sharing the space between six artists makes for a creative hub. With a central room used for a retail store and shared communal space, it’s perfect for collaborations and workshops.
 
You can find our website here leafstudios.com.au/ and we are on Instagram as Leaf at Kallista and Facebook as Leaf Studios."


If you're a local creative individual, team, organisation or business, or you support the creative industries, and you're interested in having a free campaign, you can find out all the details here: http://ow.ly/w9zO50EBoId

A rather thrilling post appeared on our socials feed last week...

Written by Phoebe Lett and published in The New York Times, it named The Saltgrass Podcast as one of five audio journeys of climate storytelling to listen to in order to begin to understand the climate crisis.  <<Read the full article here >>

Produced by Allie Hanly in Castlemaine, regional Victoria, Saltgrass is a collection of radio and podcast series all themed around the climate crisis and how grassroots movements are creating change.  You can listen to Saltgrass every Monday at 9am on 3MDR, or check out the current, and previous, series' here.

You can help Tamminya House build a new kitchen!

Tamminya House is our fourth Community Group to be awarded a FREE month of On Air Announcements, as part of a COVID-19 Recovery Project funded by Yarra Ranges Council.

"Tamminya House helps homeless single parent families feel safe and sheltered. But there's always more to be done.  Our hope is that the 3MDR campaign would help us raise some much needed funds to repair and improve our crisis accommodation. As you can see from photos we desperately need to repaint the outside of the building, and the bench is our current cooking facility, we would love to build a proper communal kitchen but we need funds to do so. We would like to invite the public to assist us in this matter by them helping us we can help others.

For more information about Tammimya House and how you can help, visit their website HERE.

Program Update

From Monday 26th April 2021, Pilot The Dune with DJ Francis With Wolves and Do Your Thing with Daniel are changing timeslots.

Pilot The Dune will be moving to Mondays 8-9pm and Do Your Thing with Daniel will move into the Thursday 9-10pm timeslot.

Presenting radio on 3MDR is a passion for the dedicated volunteers and sometimes other commitments such as work, schooling and family can get in the way.   The station tries to accommodate movements in programming to fit in with the busy lives of the volunteers wherever possible.

We'd also like to thank Clint & Cathy of Breakfast w/ Clint & Cathy fame as they have recently retired from broadcasting their award winning show on 3MDR.   We're not sure how they did it but for several years, every Friday morning Clint & Cathy managed to get many a musician on the phone or in the studio for interviews and live performances.

Lou Lou's EcLeCtIcA on Saturdays 4-6pm is also taking a short break.  We wish Lou Lou all the very best and look forward to her return to the studio to present the diverse range of under represented genres of music that EcLeCtIcA is renowned for.

The 3MDR volunteer Program Committee is currently processing new applications we look forward to introducing new programs to the weekly grid in the very near future.

Thanks for supporting your local community radio station and we hope you continue to enjoy the diversity of programs presented by the volunteers on 3MDR 97.1fm
