Join the GT Dems and Betsy Coffia for another Joyful Resistance Party, a community gathering where connection, creativity, and joyful resistance light the way forward.
Together, we’ll celebrate the power of coming together as an antidote to political darkness and fuel the energy we need for the work ahead in 2026 and beyond!
Our evening will include:
🎵 Silent Disco: Nothing like a good song—one that makes you want to dance—to shake us into action! Thanks to 2BaysDJs, we’ll have a full silent disco experience, with music pumping all night and a dance floor ready for anyone who wants to move.
🎨 Community Art Project: Guests will have the opportunity to participate in a community art project that will be a reflection of our shared values and how we are all connected as we continue the work of promoting and sustaining those values.
Camaraderie: Come be in community with others and engage in small acts of joyful resistance that will keep us uplifted and moving forward together. We know that building strong supportive resilient communities that stand up for each others’ rights and dignity will be the brightest light for the path ahead.
When: January 17th, 2026, 6-10PM
Where: MiddleCoast, 329 State Street, Traverse City, MI
All ages welcome.
MiddleCoast will have a late-night menu available with light apps provided by the hosts. Bar will be open with NA drinks available.
