Smerconish Mingle Meetup at Gourmandaise, SLC

## The Mingle Project Utah—Find Common Ground!

When: Saturday, July 26th, noon
Where: Gourmandaise, Salt Lake City

Join us for an open, friendly get-together inspired by Michael Smerconish’s Mingle Project! Whether you’re an Independent, Liberal, Moderate, Democrat, Conservative—or just “politically curious”—this meetup is all about real conversation, fresh perspectives, and discovering what we share as Americans.

We’ll be talking about the big stuff—Moderate Politics, Social Issues, and the U.S. Constitution—but also what it really means to listen, share, and learn from people outside our usual circles. The Mingle Project is all about stepping out of the echo chamber and into the “Middle,” where respectful discussion leads to greater understanding and (sometimes!) new friendships.

All views are welcome, all voices are respected, and all are encouraged to join in—whether you’re passionate about politics or just want to dip a toe in the water.

RSVPs are appreciated (Gourmandaise can get busy), and feel free to bring a friend! Let’s mingle, share ideas, and explore what connects us as much as what divides us. Donations to help defer Meetup Group costs also appreciated. 🙏
