As the Capitol Hill Community Council digs in on the issues its neighbors care the most about, it is also setting out to put a little more social in its social justice. Thursday night, join the council for the first in what it has planned as “bi-monthly social gatherings” —
Meet Your Neighbors: Wine and Beer Social
Thursday, January 21st at 6:30 PM – 8:30 PM
12th Avenue Arts 1620 12th Ave, Seattle, Washington 98122
Come to the first edition of our bi-monthly social gatherings. This month we’re meeting at 12th Avenue Arts for a chance to get to know your neighbors, meet the members of the community council, talk with electeds, and enjoy free beer and wine (and snacks!)
You might even get to meet somebody from CHS!

If you attend, think about how you go about that first handshake with president Zachary Pullin:
Our council serves in the spirit of “the firm” handshake, meaning that when neighbors experiencing homelessness need a place to stay inside during the winter, we respect their dignity and will advocate for finding warm shelter in our neighborhood. It also means that we want to be strong against increased hate violence toward the LGBTQ community. And it means we want to find safe, supportive places and services if you’re a neighbor struggling with substance use, which translates into advocating for funding and implementation of the LEAD Program in our neighborhood.
