LUMPEN TV showcases the art and culture of Chicago's communities. We are committed to spreading knowledge and positive vibrations.
We are aligned with LUMPEN RADIO, a non-profit, community radio station located in the Bridgeport neighborhood of Chicago. You can hear our radio signal throughout Chicago at 105.5FM and tune-in anywhere from our website. WLPN-LP is operated by a community of volunteers: we are DJs, curators, producers, writers and organizers.
The TV channel started as a way for musicians and performers to livestream during the pandemic. It has since grown to a small-scale television station located inside Co-Prosperity complete with camera crew and stage set. LUMPEN TV is made possible by Public Media Institute and generous donors like you.

Both Lumpen Radio and Lumpen TV are initiatives of Public Media Institute, a Chicago-based non profit arts organization.
