SEATTLE’S AGENT GREEN INVADES GREENWOOD-PHINNEY FOR

A MORE SUSTAINABLE FEBRUARY ART WALK 

Shop Local during February 12th Art Walk and Support Six Businesses

Donating 25% of Profits to Sustainability Retrofitting

WHAT On February 12, 2010, during the monthly artwalk, Greenwood-Phinney will host an Agent Green event, sponsored by Seattle Green Drinks and the Greenwood-Phinney Chamber of Commerce.

Agent Green is an organized culture mob that works to bring Seattle residents into a neighborhood to use their collective purchasing power to support neighborhood businesses that promise to dedicate 25% of their sales from the day towards energy and water efficiency retrofitting.

Our event honors five pilot businesses in particular, the first the participate in the chamber's Green Smart Sustainable Business Program.  This new program is designed to help neighborhood businesses reduce their carbon footprint and improve their overall sustainability.

Join the fun at Gainsbourg Lounge from 6:00-10:00pm as the sixth business and main event headquarters where there will be food and drink specials, and information on the program available.
WHY Shop local, give back and build your community.  The monthly artwalk offers friends and neighbors an evening where they can shop works from local Northwest artists, explore great food in the Greenwood-Phinney community and support community giving throughout the year.

In February, your purchasing power, combined with the Seattle City Light and Seattle Public Utilities' cash rebates for energy efficiency upgrades, will create the capital and intertia needed to aid six local businesses in drastically reducing their energy use.
