On Wednesday, March 4, 2009 The Lynn and Louis II Wolfson Florida Moving Image Archive screened archival footage of “Our Ten Years” and “Upward Miami“.
“Our Ten Years” is a program from 1966, which celebrates the tenth anniversary of WCKT in Miami and showcases its service through television. This special report includes highlights from the major news stories in South Florida and throughout the world that WCKT covered during their first ten years.
“Upward Miami” is a color kinescope from that sixties that focuses on the Great Miami Chamber of Commerce’s efforts to revitalize the city. This optimistic program consists of interviews with chamber members, and scenes around Miami, focusing on different areas of Miami’s economy. The common theme running through all interviews is that the chamber must act as a catalyst for the growth and prosperity of our community.
