This exhibit explores how radio transformed the way Alabamians learned about current events, enjoyed sports and music, and connected with the world beyond their local community during the twentieth century. From the launch the Alabama’s first public radio station to the beginning of the age of television, Alabama Radio Moments highlights Alabamians contributions to radio technology and programming and how radio shaped the way citizens reacted to the social and political climate of the era.

Curated and designed by ADAH staff, the exhibit is presented in partnership with the Birmingham-based Alabama Historical Radio Society.
