Monthly meeting of the Los Angeles Greens, a local group of the Green Party. We meet regularly the 3rd Wednesday of every month at the Peace Center.
Our meetings are free (donations accepted) and open to the public.

Learn about the Green Party and get involved in local Green issues.
Our ongoing campaigns include: Supporting South Central Farmers Union support campaign for workers at the Glendale Hilton who are trying to start a union there. Lobbying the LA City Council for election reforms such as Instant Runoff Voting.
The Green Party is the fastest growing political party in CA. We accept NO corporate money!
We are all grassroots volunteers-- join us and break the duopoly of the broken 2 party system!! Help us get more Green Party candidates elected to local offices (we already have over 64 in CA!) and build from the grassroots up.
Do you know anyone interested in running for office in West Hollywood, Culver City, Inglewood, etc.-- in small winnable races? Let us know.
