The event offers an accessible and informal opportunity for the voting public to get to know 18 candidates running for Kansas City At-Large City Council and 4th and 6th District City Council offices for the upcoming April 4 election.

Each candidate will be stationed at a Westport establishment to meet and greet those interested in their candidacy. The free event will be open to the public, and voters are encouraged to attend.
