Progressive Democrat Issue 81: VIRGINIA GROUPS AND EVENTS
Tuesday, July 11th, Tuesday, June 13th, 6:30-9:00pm. Voter registration/outreach planning at the July VGC meeting. Citizen involvement in the electoral process is at all-time lows. On purely philosophical level, we’d like to change that. From a tactical level, that means every voter we get in support of progressive issues and candidate means even more. Bring your ideas and be ready to take the lead in your community. At Capitol City Brewing, 2700 S. Quincy St (at the corner of 28th). Arlington, VA. We’ll start networking and dinner at 6:30, Program at 7:10-ish, and the film at 7:30 sharp. We need it to be dark in the Brewers’ Room……… info@vagrassroots.org

Drinking Liberally: An informal, inclusive weekly Democratic drinking club. Raise your spirits while you raise your glass, and share ideas while you share a pitcher. Drinking Liberally gives like-minded, left-leaning individuals a place to talk politics. You don't need to be a policy expert and this isn't a book club - just come and learn from peers, trade jokes, vent frustration and hang out in an environment where it's not taboo to talk politics. Find your local drinking liberally group or start your own with a few buddies. Currently there are only two Drinking Liberally groups in all of VA (see below). But it is easy to start your own!
Charlottesville, Virginia Drinking Liberally: Every Tuesday, 7:30 pm, Mellow Mushroom, 1320 West Main Street, Hosted by Jared Jenkins, charlottesville (at) drinkingliberally.org
Richmond, Virginia Drinking Liberally: Every Thursday, 7:30 pm onward Commercial Taphouse, 111 N Robinson St. Hosted by Scott Goode, richmond (at) drinkingliberally.org
