KPTZ Goes to the Movies
It’s a Tradition!*

The show airs Friday, September 21 from 5 to 7pm. Tune in! And if you’re at the festival, visit us at our remote studio. We will broadcast from our temporary studio in the lobby of Gooding O’Hara and Mackey, Accounting Corp, at Washington and Taylor Streets. Guests will have just arrived in a parade of classic cars down Washington Street, then celebrated the opening of the festival with the traditional Salmon dinner on Taylor Street. We’ll bring a number of them into our studio to catch the excitement of the Festival. Always an exciting night of film and radio!
