An IRRESISTIBLE Evening for Democracy

  • Alamo Drafthouse Wrigleyville 3519 North Clark Street Chicago, IL, 60657 United States (map)

Our democracy is what allows us to have our way of life with the freedoms we enjoy. But democracy is fragile—citizens must be engaged and step up to defend it.

On March 27, 2024, LWV Chicago, along with Leagues around the country, will host An IRRESISTIBLE Evening for Democracy. Join us at Alamo Drafthouse Wrigleyville for a night of film, food, and fun, featuring a screening of Irresistible, a 2020 political comedy that "takes on the big-money corruptions of American politics" (Variety).

Enjoy the full “Alamo Experience” as we showcase the work of the League of Women Voters!

Tickets are $30/person and include the movie showing and a full meal, soft drink, and popcorn to enjoy while you watch.
