Mark your after-work calendars for this Thursday, when the Bus Project and Mercury host a happy hour for people who give a shit about politics and their communities.

Come get a drink with like-minded types, meet awesome people, and hear super-quick presentations from homeless nonprofit Sisters of the Road and studly literary group Smalldoggies about the good work they do and how you can get involved. See you Thursday!

Sarah Shay Mirk reported on transportation, sex and gender issues, and politics at the Mercury from 2008-2013. They have gone on to make many things, including countless comics and several books.
