About – AVC DMO Site

This March’s Oh So Blue Celebration comes as a virtual version of our traditional national breakfast meeting, held during the National League of Cities. While we regret not being able to see you in person, you can expect the same phenomenal guest speakers, awards, and opportunity to connect with your friends in elected office. All this from the comfort of your home, and you won’t need to wake up early to save a seat!

Our Celebration this spring is a fully interactive event. Hop from table to table, meeting with other local elected Democrats from your state and across the nation.

The “Oh So Blue” Celebration is legendary. We come together twice a year to celebrate the work of you, our Democratic Municipal Officials, and hear from the best minds and hearts of the Democratic Party. DMO has featured Cabinet Members, Senators, Members of Congress, and even future Presidents at our podium, and this year we hope to see you as well
