Seattle DSA Social!
2023-01-22 16:00 - 19:00 | Clock-out Lounge, 4864 Beacon Ave S, Seattle, WA, 98108, United States
Working to create socialism is sometimes … well, a lot of work! If it’s all rallies and meetings and spreadsheets, it can turn into a drag real quick. We think it’s important to have some time to just simply get to know each other, connect over food and drinks, and have fun together — that’s what this social is for! No big speeches, no business, just time to connect with other leftists.
What to expect:

There will be folks to greet you when you arrive and all the DSA tables will be clearly marked.
We will set aside a few tables for designated activities (board games / political discussion / etc.) *
Not a member? Not a problem! We’ll have several folks on hand who love talking to new folks! Whether you are a long-time member or just curious about Seattle DSA, this event is for you!
It’s fine to arrive late — we’ll be around till at least 7.

Please RSVP on this page so we have an idea of how many people to expect. Also, feel free to bring a friend. See you there!
