Tomorrow evening (Tuesday, February 9th) we’ll be holding our monthly meetup of The Urbanist. Come on by to talk about urban issues and wade into the weeds of policy. We’ll also be kicking off our guest speaker series, which features leaders in land use, housing, transportation, and politics in Seattle and beyond.

We’ll be joined by special guest speaker Elizabeth Kiker who is the current Executive Director of Cascade Bicycle Club. Kiker has been in bicycling advocacy for more than a decade and has been at the helm of Cascade since 2013. Her discussion will focus on bicycling in Seattle and the advocacy work of her organization to improve bicycling for all. The speech will begin around 6.30pm and Kiker will stick around afterward for one-on-one chats with our guests.

Our meetups are open to all and completely free. The meetup runs from 5.30pm to 6.30pm at Belltown Pub. Find us in the loft space upstair just beyond the bar.
