In 1996, the Mexican Fine Arts Center Museum bought WCYC and established RadioArte as one of its youth projects. A publicly-owned Latino radio station, RadioArte provides a place for young people to learn the art of radio through a one-year program that trains them on the basics of broadcast journalism and production. The station, broadcasting around the clock, is an important place for community-centered programming that includes oral histories, popular and traditional music, politics, news, information, and current events. Central to their mission is addressing community issues. Silvia Rivera is currently radio manager for Radio Arte. Argelia Morales is coordinator of community outreach for the Mexican Fine Arts Center Museum and assistant radio producer with Radio Arte.
