A WELCOMING ENVIRONMENT
The Seattle Pen Club welcomes, respects and celebrates members’ individual differences (including personality, learning styles, and life experiences) and group/social differences (including race/ethnicity, class, gender, sexual orientation, country of origin, physical or cognitive abilities, and cultural, political, religious, or other affiliations).
If you experience a conflict with another Club member or feel harassed or otherwise uncomfortable, you may ask Susan, who is one of our Club Coordinators, for assistance in person at a meeting or contact her via the Contact Us form to report it and discuss a resolution. The Seattle Pen Club is a safe and welcoming environment. Harassment is not tolerated. Please reach out if you ever feel unsafe at a meeting.
ABOUT US
Founded in 2004, the Seattle Pen Club encourages the sharing and cultivation of our mutual interest in pens and stationery in a welcoming, inclusive, diverse, and respectful environment. Membership in the Seattle Pen Club is at no cost and is happily extended to anyone interested in pens and stationery.
Our club provides a welcoming space for pen enthusiasts to connect, share knowledge, and explore the world of writing instruments and writing accessories. Whether you're a seasoned collector or just starting your pen journey, our community is here to support you and share the fun!
We offer two meetings every month.
Every Third Saturday of the Month
West Side Pen Meeting
Where: Town Center at Lake Forest Park
When: 11:00am - 1:00pm
Meetings are held in the Stadler Room of the Lake Forest Park Town Center. The room is on the upper level of the Town Center (the same floor as Third Place Books) past all the food vendors and near the bathrooms. Early birds tend to congregate around 10:00am or so for coffee in the food court and some pre-meeting pen chat.
Last Sunday of the Month
Eastside Pen Meeting
Where: Usually either the Redmond Public Library or the Kingsgate Public Library in Kirkland (The location of our Eastside meeting occasionally changes due to venue availability. Please check the events on the SPC homepage, our Facebook group, or the monthly newsletter for that month's Eastside meeting location.)
When: 12:00pm - 2:00pm
Bonus Meetings!
Occasionally members will plan additional meetings in other locations. Those meetings will be posted here, in our private Facebook group, and in our email newsletter.
