Our fifth annual Together RIT: A Day of Dialogue will be held on October 23, 2026 from 10:00 a.m.-4:30 p.m. This event is only for the RIT community. The theme will focus on politics, religion, and spirituality.

Throughout the United States of America’s history politics, organized religion, and non-Western spiritual practices have been discouraged from public conversation. Our own families tell us such intersecting topics are not appropriate for the dinner table. Yet, we know the reality is that many people would like to discuss these topics. The question is how, where, and when. 

Together RIT creates a space to ask questions, empathize, build solidarity, and give recognition to our unique experiences. The day is also an opportunity to highlight the positive contributions, joy and pride that come along with identifying with a particular religion, faith, or spirituality. It is a day to seek understanding of political divisions in order to discover what we also have in common.
