Introducing our latest Impact Report, the Art of Rural-Urban Solidarity! Between 2024-25, we partnered with artists to create work in their communities inspired by rural-urban solidarity. The initiative was powered by the Creative Change Coalition and coalition members CultureSource (Michigan), Kentucky Rural-Urban Exchange, and the RedLine Contemporary Arts Center (Colorado). 

What followed was a series of artist-led projects, installations, performances, community events, and gatherings that demonstrated why rural-urban communities need each other, what solidarity looks like in action, and showcased how artists are central to repairing divides. 

This work is ongoing, explore more resources and ways you can participate in this movement to build rural-urban solidarity inside the report.

Thank you to our partners for the work they did and continue to do, and all of the artists across the nation who answered the invitation.
