Events – Democratic Socialists of America

Don’t miss out on DSA San Diego’s events! Subscribe to our events calendar in Google Calendar or your preferred calendar app.

DSA is a member-led organization. What we achieve is up to us. To that end, all members are encouraged to attend and participate in our working group and committee meetings that interest them.

If you are new to DSA or have never attended a meeting before and are not sure what you can contribute, show up, introduce yourself, get a feel for how the group interacts, ask questions, feel free to talk about your ideas for the group—or simply observe. No judgment—we’re a comradely bunch!
