We’re building a feminist future—and we need you with us.

Seattle NOW is a grassroots, all-volunteer chapter organizing for bold, intersectional change. We fight for reproductive justice, LGBTQIA+ rights, racial equity, and policies that put people over profit.

Legislative Celebration

Rough and Tumble Legislative Celebration

April 15th, 2026
4914 Rainier Ave S, Seattle, WA 98118

We are delighted to host a special evening of celebration of our hard work for women’s rights! This year Washington state was successful in passing multiple bills in support of women's issues including abortion access and more. To honor the feminists who helped make this happen, we will be celebrating them and their work on Wednesday April 15 from 7 to 9pm at Rough and Tumble (Columbia City)! Please join us for a night of feminist conversation with food and drink in a women’s sports bar! We hope to see you then.

Support the Work

We don’t take corporate money. We don’t have paid staff. Every dollar goes directly to grassroots feminist organizing right here in Seattle—printing materials, running events, showing up at the Capitol, and building power.

If you believe in this work, chip in.
