So Much Together celebrated the abundance of imaginative and collaborative work shaping lives and the land in the Pacific Northwest. The program ran from 2021 to 2025. These workshops expanded possibilities for bringing greater imagination and collaboration into our own work and communities through a blend of presentations, conversations, activities, and reflection.

About So Much Together
At each event, guest presenters shared their work through storytelling, diverse media, and dialogue. Participants were invited to ask questions, have conversations, and collaborate on projects and activities designed by presenters to inspire meaningful engagement with the ideas and processes that make this great work happen.
So Much Together was open to the public and free to attend. These workshops were for anyone interested in better understanding how collaborative and imaginative work is shaping lives and the land in Oregon and the Pacific Northwest.
Workshops focused on themes explored in Oregon Humanities magazine. Guest presenters included magazine contributors and people nominated by the public, including Oregon Humanities staff and partner organizations.
