A message from Tim Carpenter, National Director of Progressive Democrats of America:

Progressive Democrats of America and The Nation Magazine will be in Denver August 24-28 for the DNC Convention, and to greet progressives from all over the country. Whether you plan to participate as a delegate inside the Convention or outside building the progressive movement, we have a fascinating 5-day event planned for you.

Join PDA and The Nation Magazine at "Progressive Central," a progressive oasis located in the heart of the city--just minutes from the Pepsi Center. Enjoy opportunities to network, learn, and share ideas with like-minded people. Click here for more info.

On Sunday evening, August 24, join us for PDA's "Progressive Welcome to Denver." Featuring Mimi Kennedy, PDA Advisory Board Chair and our guests Rep. Barbara Lee, Katrina vanden Heuvel, Tom Hayden, Jim Zogby, and Jim Hightower. Click here for the details. Suggested contribution: $15.00.

Each morning, The Nation will host a series of conversations, moderated by John Nichols, featuring some of the country's foremost progressive members of Congress and other renowned progressives.

Picking up where The Nation leaves off, PDA will host an impressive array of progressives in panel discussions on some of today's hottest issues each afternoon. (Suggested donation $10.00).

You'll find us from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM daily, at the Central Presbyterian Church, 1660 Sherman St., easily accessed by public transportation (limited paid parking available). See Map.

We're your one-stop progressive spot for enlightened conversation, fascinating panels, delicious box lunches (purchase in advance--sold at cost), tabling, and a comfortable space to unwind among friends.
