Sign up for our May events!


As we head into the home stretch of the primary season, we hope to see you at one of our May events!

May 10th Monthly Social - we'll be at a new restaurant, not a pub this time, so email for more details. We'll be there as of 6:30pm, catching up on the latest primary action, so come on by and say hi.

May 26th, an evening with filmmakers Edward and Libby Klekowski-  many of you attended our event last year on their book, Americans in Occupied Belgium.  Back in Brussels month, they've accepted our request to show their hour-long documentary, “Model T's to War: American Ambulances on the Western Front 1914-1918” (shown on PBS in the US).  As some of our US presidential candidates talk more and more about America First, it's touching to recall the story of the American Field Service/volunteers in WWI.  The Klekowskis have also written about this in their book, Eyewitnesses to the Great War -- if anyone has the book and would like them to sign it, they're happy to!

Date/Time: 26 May 2016 at 19:00 (dinner will begin for those interested around 20:30; separate checks will be provided)

Location: please email Amanda Rohde for more info (see below).

Everyone is welcome – American, Democrat or otherwise! As space is limited, however, we ask that you RSVP to [email protected]by 16 May 2016. Please specify whether you will come only for the talk or if you plan to stay for dinner.

 Stay in touch via our Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/DABelgium, or our website, www.democratsabroad.org/be. And make sure you've requested that November absentee ballot at www.votefromabroad.org!


On behalf of the Executive Committee, happy May Day!
