It’s that time of the year again! Mark your calendars now for the Rural Center’s 2017 Rural Assembly. Join us November 16-17 at the Raleigh Marriott Crabtree Valley as we take a deep dive into the topic of rural leadership and the importance of local leaders in helping rural communities chart their own course for the future.
The future is what we dare to make it. Will you help lead the way?
Our keynote speaker this year is bestselling author, renowned chef, and television host Vivian Howard. Vivian will share a personal story of her return home to rural North Carolina and her journey from a budding rural entrepreneur to television star.
Be sure to register early! Confirm your seat at the Assembly by October 16 and receive a signed-copy of Vivan’s critically acclaimed book of recipes and reflections, Deep Run Roots.
The 2017 Rural Assembly also marks our 30th anniversary, and we want to celebrate with you! Check back soon for a full agenda and a list of our other featured speakers.
It’s time for rural places to claim their future. We can’t wait to see you in November and start the journey together!
