Welcome to the Denver Press Club! We invite you to become part of something special - a journalism tradition in Denver that stretches back to 1884. That's how long journalists have gathered at the Denver Press Club - to socialize, gossip, swap ideas and stories.The club is one of the most distinctive private clubs in America. For more than a century, it's played host to poets and presidents, writers and visiting journalists. Ginger Rogers learned to play poker here. Carl Sandburg stopped in for dinner. Damon Runyon drank here. Woodrow Wilson paid a call. The journalists who created the club almost immediately included other professionals. Lawyers, judges and public relations specialists are among our ranks. Freelancers and student journalists are also members. In fact, anyone who shares an interest in communications, literacy, current affairs or the First Amendment is welcome. The club hosts book signings, newsmaker luncheons and talks by local editors and reporters. We encourage the best of student journalism with an annual scholarship. Members enjoy reciprocal privileges at 22 other press clubs across the nation. We hope that as you peruse this web site, you'll find a reason to join us.
