<html><head><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"></head><body style="overflow-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;">Hi friends!<div><br></div><div>Next Monday, May 13th, Anna Zivarts will be speaking at Town Hall Seattle about her new book, <i>When Driving is Not an Option: Steering Away from Car Dependency</i>, in conversation with Barb Chamberlain and Tanisha Sepúlveda. : <a href="https://townhallseattle.org/event/anna-zivarts/">https://townhallseattle.org/event/anna-zivarts/</a></div><div><br></div><div>TRU has agreed to be a community partner for the event, which means we help to promote it and donate something (likely a TRU hat) for a prize drawing. It also means we get a 6-foot table in the plaza! The tabling fair will happen from 6:30-7:30 before the event, and we’re supposed to arrive by 6pm to set up our tabling materials. </div><div><br></div><div><b>Would anyone like to staff the table? </b>I probably can’t stay the whole time but I could bring some TRU schwag and probably come up with a sign-up sheet if people want to be added to our announcement list and a page with a QR code for joining etc. Lots of our MASS allies are tabling too so it should be fun chance to hang out.</div><div><br></div><div>Katie</div><div><br><div>
