The Rural-Urban Exchange began in Kentucky in 2014 as a partnership between Art of the Rural and Appalshop. RUX brings people together to share experiences that strengthen Kentucky from the ground up. We do that work together across three Community Intensives per year by committing to personal growth, investing in new relationships, seeding new projects, and telling our Kentucky stories. The program launched it's ninth year in Kentucky in 2022, with a new cohort and the first of three Community Intensives taking place on May 27-29, 2022. The Minnesota Rural-Urban Exchange also launches this summer.
