Get Tickets

Democracy360 returns to Charlottesville for three days of bold ideas, engaging conversations, and visionary thinking. Presented by the University of Virginia’s Karsh Institute of Democracy, this free event convenes thought leaders, journalists, policymakers, scholars, artists, and students of all ages to ask: How do we shape a thriving democratic future together? 

This year’s convening comes at a pivotal moment as the United States nears the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence—an opportunity to reflect on democracy’s founding ideals and imagine its future. The Karsh Institute is proud to welcome back The Atlantic as Official Media Partner and VPM as Distribution Partner.
