The Capitol Hill Community Council is thrilled to announce its inaugural 'Great Ideas Festival' on January 22, 2025, aimed at engaging local residents in shaping the future of their neighborhood. The festival will be held at Hugo House, inviting community members to brainstorm and share their ideas, which will help prioritize projects for the coming months and beyond. This initiative follows a successful holiday gathering in December, where the council hosted an ugly sweater contest and collected donations for Lowell Elementary’s clothing drive. The revival of the council aims to enhance representation and participation among Capitol Hill residents, fostering a stronger sense of community. Attendees will have the opportunity to collaborate and discuss their visions for making Capitol Hill the best neighborhood in Seattle.

The council emphasizes that input from residents will be crucial in determining future initiatives.

This event represents a proactive step towards community engagement and local improvement.
