ABOUT OPEN TELEVISION

OTV | Open Television (est. 2015, Chicago) is a platform for intersectional television, with artists and their creative visions at the center. This nonprofit distribution platform that supports artists and communities marginalized by their race, gender, sexuality, class, religion, disability, or nationality began as part of an ongoing research project at Northwestern University. In addition to providing a network of care to foster the entire trajectory of a creative project from inception to release, OTV also offers connectivity, financing, and consultation throughout, all to bring the stories of our time that are often underrepresented or missing from TV to the public.
