Submit An Event
Before you submit an event for calendar consideration, please read this.
We want to hear about your upcoming events. There are some types of events that we do not cover, but we read every email we receive. If you would like your event to stand out, another way of reaching our readers is by buying an ad or featured event listing, which highlights your submission on the home page and at the top of the category page.
The odds of our posting your event are enhanced if you 1) submit information to us by carefully following the calendar listing instructions that follow; 2) include a photo, sized at 1200 x 732 pixels, 72 dpi; and 3) give us adequate lead time — a few weeks in advance is ideal. Before submitting, please look at the section in which you would like your event posted, and follow those listings as closely as possible.
Calendar Listing Instructions
Send an email to: listings@ruralintelligence.com. Photos should be sent as attachments (do not embed in the email).
Example Listing
Subject: August 26, 3 p.m. Conversations on the Green, Washington, CT
Prescient Politics: Art Foreshadows Life. Former NBC News correspondent and talk show host Jane Whitney moderates a conversation with legendary writer, actor, director and producer Barry Levinson, the man behind the films Wag the Dog, Diner, Rain Man, Paterno and many more. St. John's Church Parish Hall.
Other things you should know:
Parties: We count on the party-giver's website to provide readers with details such as ticket prices, suggested dress, directions, etc. We need the date and time, the location, the name of the event and the beneficiary.
Shopping: Nothing upsets us more than to drive by a tent sale we hadn't heard about. So please give us a head's-up and send us a couple photos of the merchandise. We also list new store openings and special in-store events. We do not list tag sales.
Emails: These are our lifeblood, but we get hundreds every day. We are a small team, and do our best to respond to queries in a timely manner.
One more thing. We are here for you; please support us.
We offer our curated calendar free as a service to the Rural Intelligence region. If you are an organization that counts on us to list your events multiple times in the year, we ask that you become a paying supporter of Rural Intelligence at just $60/year. You can contribute here, and we thank you.
Please note: Inclusion of any event is at the sole discretion of the Rural Intelligence editorial staff.
