Make a statement at our SIGN MAKING STATION ✊🏽

Swing by the Sign-Making Station to get creative for change!

We’ll have materials — cardboard, markers, tape — and sign-making support on hand, so you can craft your message ahead of the Good Trouble Lives On march and rally on Thursday, July 17, honoring civil rights legend John Lewis – or for wherever your next sign-waving occasion is!

Whether you’re an artist or just have something to say, come make a sign, share ideas, and help others do the same!

Have clean cardboard to spare? Bring it! Got poster board or corrugated plastic? Even better. And if you have a metal yardstick or other creative sign-holding ideas, let’s put them to good use.

☀️☀️☀️☀️

And lastly, BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND, we're bringing back The Summer Picnic Scavenger Hunt! 🕵️‍♀️ Find the sponsor or candidate who matches each fun fact and redeem for swag!

☀️☀️☀️☀️

But wait, there's more!!

From 4 to 5pm, we’ll shift gears for a special DISTRICT 5 TOWN HALL!

With Councilmember Cathy Moore's resignation on July 7, this is a unique opportunity for D5 residents to come together, share their vision for our district, and meet some of the applicants for the vacant seat. Your input will also be shared with the Seattle City Council as they prepare to appoint a new representative.

No ticket is required for the Town Hall, but your RSVP will help us better plan for the event!
