Interact with City Offices and Trucks, Local Businesses

KIRKLAND, Wash. – Community members of all ages are invited to the City of Kirkland’s “City Hall for All” event on Saturday, September 9. This event is part of Welcoming Week, an annual campaign that celebrates the work in communities to become welcoming places for all.

“City Hall for All is a fun, educational, one-of-a-kind opportunity for the community to get to know their local government,” said City Councilmember Amy Falcone. “They can meet staff from various city departments, engage with their elected councilmembers, learn about our programs, enjoy a tour of City Hall, get their pet licensed, or even climb on a fire engine.”

On Saturday, September 9, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., City Hall for All will feature:

  • Interactive booths with City staff sharing program information from various Departments
  • Meet and greets with City Councilmembers
  • Open City services – get a pet license, pay a utility bill or sign up for a recreation class
  • Guided tours of Kirkland City Hall
  • New pop-up market featuring 30+ Kirkland and Eastside businesses
  • Truck-a-Palooza! A much-loved event featuring a variety of City trucks and vehicles

This year, the city of Kirkland is working with community organizations to become the first city in Washington to receive a “Welcoming America” certification, a formal designation for cities that have created policies and programs that reflect their values and commitment to inclusion, especially for immigrants and refugees.
