Blacksburg, Virginia uses Facebook and social media campaigns very thoroughly for cultural & community events - i.e. plays directed and performed by community members, community meals (food grown locally and cooked by community members, served free to community members), music performances at local downtown restaurants (these musicians are often locally-based), local concert performances, and speaking events.

This social media awareness is fueled/generated by the younger members of the community. Posters and fliers in the town are distributed and help to advertise these community events
