Capitol Hill Networking Event - Topic of Discussion: Managing Graffiti

Come meet other Bizniks on Capitol Hill for a Happy Hour networking social from 4-6pm; event named drink specials will make this event even more exciting. Complimentary light refreshments will also be provided.

Want to learn how you, the small business owner, can help battle graffiti?

Helen Martin of Seattle Paint Out has invited Seattle Public Utilities "graffiti rangers," to participate in a demonstration on a red wagon that Cafe Metropolitan houses year round.

Demonstration will include the supplies needed, how to use them and where to get them at little or no cost.

Join us at Cafe Metropolitan, corner of Olive & Boylston on Capitol Hill, two blocks West of Broadway.

Note on Parking: There is a parking lot on Boylson just South of the venue that charges $5 for the evening, otherwise it is the typical Capitol Hill parking challenge so come early; the venue opens at 4pm.

  I'd be interested if this were about preventing graffiti.

  Dear Brad: This event will have tips about preventing graffiti as well. I think you should come and you might be amazed at the information you leave with. By the way, the bar is naming a drink "Graffiti Free" just for the occasion.

  Thank you for caring about your neighborhood and the graffiti issue at hand. Small businesses spend a lot of money each year combating graffiti.

  Looking forward to this topic - my friends have had some challenges with their properties and I'd like to know more.

  Charlie, you will come away with some great information. I've been involved with Graffiti removal for 7 years and was invited by councilman Reardon of Snohomish County to present at their graffiti summit last year.

  I will not be able to be there until 5 pm. Hopefully that isn't a problem.
