Confirmed Venues For Listening during the DNC

Here is a list of confirmed venues for listening, where the organizers have said: Yes, you can be here. There is more to be listed as we get more conformations.

Our initial intention was to set up a permanent tent in some locations, but then we found out that we would have to take it down every night. In stead we will bring our own chairs, tents, etc. More info on this at the Setup meeting, Saturday 23rd at 10 am, on 2085 Forest Street.

Listening with and for these organizations, and to anyone else, in any location, at any time during the DNC, does not mean that we, as an organization, agree with or support them. What we do is LISTEN, we listen to everyone, without discrimination, for the VISION that is behind the commitment, the actions, the choices. We are grateful for the spaces shared to do so.
