FORJ 2026 Rural and Small-Town Journalism Reception
An opening reception bringing together Oregon publishers and funders, featuring new statewide sustainability findings.
Join us for the opening reception of the 4th Annual Rural & Small-Town Journalism Conference. This evening gathering brings together independent rural and small-town publishers from across Oregon with state and regional philanthropic leaders who care about the future of community-based journalism.
In addition to networking and conversation, Adam Davis of NW Opinions will present highlights from the Oregon Independent Publisher Sustainability Report, offering new statewide insights into the challenges and opportunities facing rural and small-town news organizations.
Heavy appetizers will be provided, along with a hosted bar. While this event is free, attendance is limited to the first 125 people. The reception is designed to spark connection, shared understanding, and practical pathways for supporting sustainable community-based journalism across Oregon.
