SMALL TOWN PRIDE

PRIDE_Crowd_ LOGO_FINAL.png

    Perhaps the most noteworthy and well-known event the Rural Justice Network puts on, Small Town Pride started in 2021 to give rural citizens a chance to participate in a celebration of representation that is not easily available to them outside of large, populated cities. It is important for representation to reach all areas, and give people a chance to feel seen and heard in places that typically fly under the radar. 

​

     The event includes live performances full of bands, dancer, singers, and speakers. The field is full of vendors distributing their own creations and information about our surrounding towns and communities. Volunteers tour the grounds to help answer questions and make this a fun and memorable experience for everyone. Food and Porta-Potties are also available.
