The WKNY Polish Hour
Rev. Stanislaus J. Malinowski was the Pastor of our Immaculate Conception Church from 1937-1945. Father Malinowski presented a weekly radio program called the “Polish Hour” on Radio Station WKNY starting in October 1943.
On the program Father discussed events in the lives of the local Polish community and the struggles that Poland encountered during World War II. He also dedicated and played Polish music for all to enjoy.
While we do not have the music, we do have many of the transcripts of the radio programs available for your reading enjoyment.
The originals are now part of a collection about the Polish Community in Kingston and is located at the
Friends of Historic Kingston, Corner of Wall and Main Streets, (63 Main Street) Kingston, NY.
