This year, Rural Assembly Everywhere is more everywhere than ever before. More than 30 communities have signed on as partner sites to host local events in conjunction with the Rural Assembly Everywhere national broadcast. The local offerings are as diverse as the communities themselves, spanning 21 states.
Last year for the first time, we invited communities to host local gatherings where they would stitch together national rural conversations in our broadcast with issues of local importance, all while sharing a meal and visiting. Those nine communities paved the way for the Rural Assembly team to prepare to more than triple the level of engagement in 2026.
If one of these events is in your neck of the woods, send us a message for the details at [email protected]. And remember to register for Rural Assembly Everywhere livestream wherever you are! This free, 90-minute national broadcast brings together rural leaders, community members, and advocates from across the country for conversations, music, art, and a live chat that celebrate rurality, build connections, and revive rural community members so that we can keep doing the work.
