FLOWER BARS ARE BACK!
We hosted the first of our three annual flower bars this week at TPC Ballard. The weather forced us to abandon our rooftop dreams and move inside but we still managed to have a successful event. Natalie from Celestial Fizz Co. mixed up some delicious cocktails and NA drinks and more than 30 members made their own flower arrangements to bring home. Check the calendar below for Belltown and Tacoma dates!

MEMBER SPOTLIGHT
YOUR FAVORITE BELLTOWN LUNCH SPOTS
A few weeks ago, we polled members on their favorite places to eat lunch. We plan to feature each location's picks on our blog over the next few months. First up, Belltown!
Editors note: I recommend packing a lunch at least four days per week to keep a healthy cushion in your bank account for your coworking membership.
Don't forget to nominate!
Tacoma, WCY, and Ballard members, there is still time to tell us where to eat!
