On the eve of Seattle's Women's March, people gathered around tables inside The Feed Store in the Mount Baker neighborhood.

"We are having kind of a Women's March pre-funk, poster-making happy hour," said owner Kristin Hyde.

They spent hours putting paint to paper, making signs to wave Saturday.

Patricia Chase's sign reads, "impeach." She plans on making a political statement about the Trump administration.

But also attending, according to a Facebook post, is Patriot Prayer, a group that's stated goal is to "get people with a different point of view" at the march.

"I think all voices should be heard," said Hyde.

In addition to demonstrating, Hyde says The Feed Store will be donating.

"We are participating with a bunch of other women-owned coffee shops in donating a percentage of proceeds back to a group called, She Should Run. So we are trying to elect more women to office and that feels really good," said Hyde.

This year's Women's March starts at 10 a.m. at Cal Anderson Park. Here's a guide for what to expect.
