CALOP

The University City Commission for Access and Local Original Programming (CALOP) awards grants to independent filmmakers to create programs spotlighting our region’s art, culture and history to air on cable television channels in University City and the surrounding area.

There are seven voting members appointed by the Council, all of which must be residents. At least one member is chosen from a group of three nominees submitted to Council by the cable franchisee. Members must have a background or knowledge of at least one of three areas, telecasting/cable casting, educational programs and cultural activities.

CALOP meets at 6 p.m. on the fourth Thursday of the month.
