PROSPECTS FOR AMERICAN RENEWAL
BOZEMAN, MONTANA
OCTOBER 16 & 17
2026 SUMMIT
Welcome to the Arcata. Our annual summit hosts an intimate group of workers, thinkers, scholars, blue collars, leaders, and learners to address the most important questions of our day. Convened in cities of cultural significance, enjoyed over good food and drink, our summit’s aim is to enlighten, edify, and entertain our guests, ultimately equipping them with the tools to enact meaningful changes in their own communities.
This October, in conjunction with our speakers and sponsors, we are inviting 120 guests to join us at the historic Hotel Baxter in Bozeman Montana to address the question that is on everyone’s mind:
Is an American Renewal possible? What does it look like? And how do we get there?
WHY “PROSPECTS FOR AMERICAN RENEWAL”?
We deserve a better public square than social media.
Scores of bright thinkers, on both sides of the aisle, have expounded upon what is wrong with our country, and the world writ-large. But solutions are far more difficult than diagnostics, and the solutions to our nation’s existential crisis remain either unknown or untried.
Why is this?
Perhaps it is because action requires collaboration; collaboration requires community; and community is not built over a screen, but with real people at real, intentional gatherings. The Prospects for American Renewal is one of the great conversations of our day. It’s time we had it out in the open.
