The Richmond Forum on VPM

The 2023 – 2024 season was one of the most highly-rated seasons in Forum history! Many of you asked us to share the powerful messages of our speakers with the Richmond community and we listened.

We have partnered again with VPM to bring four programs directly to living rooms across Central Virginia. This summer you can watch hour-long, condensed versions of Liz Cheney, Dr. Anthony Fauci, Isabel Wilkerson, Jan Crawford, and Kimberley Strassel’s programs. The series will kick off on Tuesday, June 4 with Liz Cheney’s “Principles Over Politics.”

Tune in to relive these memorable evenings or experience them for the first time and be sure to share the great news with your friends and neighbors.
