You have likely heard in news that public media nationwide will no longer receive funding from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.

PBS is not gone. PBS KIDS is not gone. And Idaho Public Television continues to create local programs like Outdoor Idaho and provide high-quality in-person educational resources to families and schools around the state.

Federal funding for Idaho Public Television—about $2 million, or 25% of the private funds raised by the Friends of Idaho Public Television each year—helped us in foundational ways.

With your support, Idaho Public Television can continue to provide these popular programs and vital services throughout the state. Visit idahoptv.org/donate to learn more.

As always, we thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for being our neighbor. by @idahoptv

Discover createid's newest program, "Beneath the Surface: Lonnie Hutson and Gail Siegel."

The two artists, who met in graduate school at the University of Idaho, draw inspiration from the natural world and experiences that have shape their lives.

From Lonnie Hutson’s intricate paper-cast fish to Gail Siegel’s expressive, layered paintings, their work offers two distinct perspectives on what lies beneath the surface.

Stream "Beneath the Surface: Lonnie Hutson and Gail Siegel" at the link in our bio or by visiting youtube.com/@createidahoptv by @idahoptv
