Poster for event

uly 30 marks Medicare's 61st birthday. Back in 1965, it took decades of organizing to get seniors guaranteed health care. We're picking up that fight and pushing to finish the job: health care for everyone, not just people over 65. Now is the Time for Medicare for All!

Join Muncie DSA and Muncie Resists as we deliver a letter (backed by over 335 organizations, including Indivisible and DSA National) to Rep. Victoria Spartz's district office.

Read the letter here: https://medicare4all.org/wp-content/uploads/Final_2026_M4A_organizational_sign-on_letter_335.pdf

What we're doing: We're showing up together, letter in hand, to make it clear this isn't a fringe ask. 90% of Democratic voters and 63% of all voters support Medicare for All. Our elected leaders need to hear that loud and clear.

What to bring: Just yourself! If you want to help make signs or bring a pen for signatures, that's a bonus, but not required.

Who's coming: This is a joint effort between Muncie DSA, Muncie Resists, and folks organizing out of Hamilton County. All are welcome.

For August we are going to try our hand at gel printing on postcards! We'll turn them into notes of support for detainees at Miami Correctional Facility. No experience needed, we'll walk you through the process. We'll also have supplies on hand! Come make something beautiful that'll support our neighbors!

Join us for our monthly Progressive Discussion Group to connect, converse, and collaborate with fellow resisters!

For September we will create a collage on democracy and protest! Bring images, words, fabric scraps, whatever speaks to you! We'll also have supplies on hand, so if you don't have any, no worries! Each piece will become part of one larger collage that we'll display in a public space, so everyone's contribution literally becomes part of something bigger. No art skills needed. Just bring yourself (or a friend too)!

For October we will create headstones for a statewide die-in at the Indiana State Capitol later in the month! We will have poster board, paint, markers, and templates to make headstones for the event. We will prep headstones and signs for ourselves and others who join us in Indy. No art skills needed. Just bring yourself (or a friend too)!

For November we're making luminaries! Bring an empty tin can (soup/vegetable cans work great) and we'll show you how to turn it into a luminary. We'll also have supplies on hand for punching designs and adding the candles, so if you don't have a can, no worries, we'll have extras. No art skills needed. Just bring yourself (or a friend too)!

oin Muncie Resists as we wrap up the year in community and gratitude! Our annual Holiday Party is an open house and carry-in gathering — a chance to connect, celebrate, and give back together. Bring a favorite dish to share and enjoy good company, conversation, and cheer.

This year, we’re also collecting donations for the Buley Center – Boys & Girls Clubs of Muncie (details on what they need most will be sent out once you register).

Come when you can, stay as long as you’d like, and help us spread warmth and kindness this season. ✨
