Citizen Salons
Named by Portland Monthly as the city’s “best intellectual salon,” Citizen Salons bring together members’ love of good food and great conversation in intimate settings, while at the same time supporting the vital mission of City Club. Salons contain food, wine, politics, architecture, music, bicycling and more!
Please read the points below for information on attending a Salon. If your questions are not answered, contact Jennifer or phone her at 503.228.7231 x104.
Citizen Salons are seeking hosts!
City Club is currently looking for hosts who are willing to open their homes or places of business to knowledgeable provocateurs and small parties who will discuss the host’s issue of choice. Volunteers can also consider co-hosting with friends or other City Club members, or hosting outside the home in an intimate venue, such as a small restaurant. Salons are a wonderful way to financially support City Club while also encouraging dialog about the issues that matter to you and to our community. To learn more or volunteer, email amy@pdxcityclub.org or call 503-228-7231 x100.
How to acquire tickets:
Click on the “Make your reservation here!” link at the bottom of each Citizen Salon page on our website. This uses the same encrypted ticketing system that we use for the Friday Forums. Alternatively, you can call 503.228.7231 x104 and leave a detailed message including your payment information.
Ticket information and Pricing:
Member tickets: $35.00. Non-member tickets: $45.00.
Payment must be made at the time of reservation. All tickets are available on a first-come first-serve basis. If a Salon sells out we will keep a waiting list. Preference will be given to waitlisted City Club members in the order that the request was received if tickets become available after a Salon has sold out. Sales close one week before the date of the Salon unless otherwise noted: tickets are non-refundable after that time unless we are able to sell your ticket to someone else.
What to expect next:
If you purchase your ticket online, you will receive an electronic receipt within 5 minutes. If you do not, please contact Jennifer or 503.228.7231 x104 to verify that your purchase was completed and tickets reserved. City Club will send all ticketbuyers an additional receipt via USPS. You will also receive detailed information regarding location, and will be notified of any changes in time or venue.
