MPU+VFW: 9/11 Reflections

John Lyon VFW Post 3150 2116 19th Street N, Arlington, VA 22201

RSVP

On the 24th anniversary of 9/11, the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) and A More Perfect Union (+MPU) are hosting a joint event to reflect on the lasting significance of our shared national tragedy.

Both our organizations are committed to fostering connections, serving communities, and promoting civic responsibility. Join us for a unique opportunity to share a meal with fellow community members and find common ground.

It takes personal courage and a sense of responsibility to step out of your comfort zone and everyday bubble, but it is so important to connect with others in a meaningful way. We’ll cover food and drink!

We’re capping this event at 50 people, so be sure to RSVP.

**We have very limited parking. Some street parking is available on Veitch Street. The VFW Post is also easily accessible via public transportation. ART 55 bus and the Courthouse Metro (.5 miles) **
