Ticket purchases help cover the cost of the venue and food throughout the weekend. To maintain our political independence, our financial independence is essential. We rely exclusively on donations from our members and supporters—those who want to see the revolutionary overthrow of the capitalist system. With this in mind, to help support our revolutionary activity, we encourage participants to give a solidarity donation when purchasing tickets. However, finances should not be a barrier for attendance. If you are unable to cover the cost of admission, please email events@communistusa.org.
