Fitchburg Access Television has moved its studio and offices to 780 Main St. in Fitchburg, the Rollstone Bank & Trust building.

“With our move to Main Street, we are now located in the heart of the city, presenting greater opportunity for growth with increased visibility and accessibility,” Nathan Glenny, executive director at FATV, said in a Monday press release.

The 5,500-square-foot space contains a podcast studio, three editing workstations, an editing suite, conference room, media preservation workstation, and a green room/waiting area, as well as five administrative offices.

“FATV is dedicated to serving the residents of Fitchburg by offering hyper-local coverage featuring community events, civic meetings, and local sporting events to keep our community connected, informed, and entertained. Our members have access to state-of-the-art equipment and training to produce informational talk shows and programs of interest to the residents of Fitchburg,” Glenny said.

The new studio will be activated for broadcast on Feb. 7. A ribbon cutting ceremony will be held in the spring. Rollstone Bank & Trust is the primary occupant of 780 Main St., as the financial institution has its mortgage center there. 

Fitchburg Access Television, a nonprofit organization, was founded in 1987 and in that time has been located in the Wallace Civic Center, the Johnsonia building, South Street School, and was at its most recent location on Kimball Street since 2005.

The station is home to Barbara and You, a talk show hosted by Barbara Foster, which has been running continuously for over 45 years.
