About this Event

Save the date for the 2025 Richmond People’s Movement Assembly! Join us for a day of community collaboration, connection, and empowerment.

Saturday, January 18, 12 - 6pm @ Studio Two Three

Are you interested in...
...building relationships and developing social movement infrastructure?
...learning about new topics and skills?
...building collective power?
...remembering those who have paved the way in our movements?

Join us, along with other cities around the country, for Festivals of Resistance the weekend of January 18. On the wave of the next Trump presidency, we must find one another, learn together, and take action towards the world we want to build.

In Richmond, we will hold the People's Assembly, which seeks to make connections with our neighbors, create and fortify our networks, and share the skills that will help us meet the challenges that lie ahead AND build alternative futures.

Are you part of a group or organization already doing these things?
