I'm kind of surprised no-one has mentioned Twisted in this thread.

Twisted is an async-framework that I believe has support for using a
variety of different event-loops, including Tkinter and wxWidgets, as
well as it's own.

It has been heavily re-factored many times, so if you want to see the
current Python "state of the art" way of doing this, I'd be having a
look at what they are doing.
