Trivia Night in Support of KCLS Foundation brings community members together 
for a fun, fall festival–style evening of friendly competition and local connection 
at Pickering Barn in Issaquah on Friday, October 16, 2026.

Hosted by Head in the Clouds Trivia, the event will feature team trivia, food and 
drinks, raffle prizes, carved pumpkins, and a special visit from KCLS Mobile 
Services’ new Library2Go Bookmobile. Designed as a relaxed and accessible 
fundraiser, Trivia Night invites current supporters, local businesses, and 
community partners to gather in support of the future of libraries in King County. 
Proceeds benefit the KCLS Foundation, helping fund programs and resources 
that keep libraries strong and accessible for the communities they serve.
