As we start the fourth year of Week to Week, the Club's political roundtable. And we've got an even bigger milestone to note: The Club was founded in February 1903 here in San Francisco. Join us for a special members social (all attendees welcome) celebrating the Club's birthday prior to the program. Meet other smart and engaged Club members and guests over snacks and wine—and birthday cake.

On the national scene, the first caucuses and primaries are under way in Iowa and New Hampshire. Locally and statewide, there's much to talk about with new laws, candidates, and political events. Join us as we explore the biggest, most controversial, and sometimes the surprising political issues with expert commentary by panelists who are smart, are civil, and have a good sense of humor. Join our panelists for informative and engaging commentary on political and other major news, audience discussion of the week’s events, and our live news quiz!
