Capitol Hill is always and interesting place but this weekend it will be even more interesting-er with a CHS Calendar roster of not-the-first-thing-you-might-have-thought-you’d-have-fun-doing events.
First, get your uninformed voter butt more fully informed with a session with the League of Women Voters Thursday night digging into this November’s ballot initiatives. Friday, the do-gooding continues with a fundraiser and baby food drive for The Pledge program at E Jefferson’s Peloton.

Friday night, things get weird. The first in a series of three test dates for Pike People Street concepts will close a portion of E Pike to traffic starting at 11 PM.
Get real Saturday as the Depressed Cake Shop returns to Capitol Hill, this year, ironically, at Optimism Brewing. The pop-up bakery “raises awareness of mental health conditions” and benefitsĀ NAMI Seattle. Here is what it looked like last year.

Saturday, you canĀ indulge your feelings with cheese at Central Co-op’s seventh annualĀ Cascadia Cheese Festival. Saturday also brings the return of theĀ ZeroLandfill upcycling event at Miller Community Center that brings together “glass, tile, wood, carpet, laminate, fabric samples and much, much, more!” for artists, designers, and crafters to pick through and put to excellent re-use.
You’ll find all these and more — and you can also add your own Hill-related events — on the CHS Calendar.
