Your Media Projects Could Be Honored At The 2025 WAVE Awards

The WAVE Awards (Western Access Video Excellence) are presented annually by the Alliance for Community Media West Region. They recognize excellence in community media programming across six western states: Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Nevada, and New Mexico.

We are excited to share that the 2025 WAVE Awards Ceremony will take place in Fresno on March 6, as part of the ACM West Region Conference. To celebrate, we are offering to sponsor the submission fees for five CMAC members.

That’s right! If you created a media project that first aired on CMAC between September 1, 2023 and August 31, 2024, it is eligible to be submitted for an award.

Submission fees range from $35 to $50, but we will be sponsoring submission fees for five CMAC members. In order to be considered, please submit our Sponsorship Interest Form.

There are many categories to choose for both community producers and student producers. Have multiple videos? No problem—submit as many as you like!  To learn more about the WAVE Awards, visit them on Film Freeway.
