YOU'RE INVITED!

Take Back 2026: The Midterm Magic Show

Sunday, August 16, 2026

Downtown Santa Monica (address upon RSVP)

5:00–6:00 PM - VIP Cocktail Reception

6:00–7:30 PM - Magic Show, hosted by Albie Selznick

(Magicians announced soon!)

Every ticket directly funds the WDHQ campaign office we're opening this fall. This is where our incredible community of volunteers will organize nationwide Get Out the Vote efforts through Election Day.

(Tickets start at $50 - limited supply available!)

Want to do more than watch the show?

Help sponsor the community space that'll allow us to organize & mobilize fellow Westside Democratic volunteers to help win elections here in CA & across the country.

Sponsors also receive VIP access, priority seating, drink tickets, and recognition before & during the event. Higher level sponsorships also include on-site event marketing.

We can't wait to see you there. Bring a friend, or three!

In solidarity,

Hap Henry



Chair, Westside Democratic HQ
