Kaleidoscope is an Arts Magazine. This program is one of the ways that 5mbs links our station to the wider music community as well as looking further afield, from time to time, at local drama, art and literature. It is an important link to the wider listening audience as we talk with some very interesting people about what interests them most. You can hear it on Wednesday 6.pm or Saturday 11am. In your own time you can access it through Listen on Demand via 5mbs.com.
Program to be broadcast on 19 March at 6.00pm and 22 March at 11.00am or Listen on Demand via 5mbs.com
