Club members must register for Jan. 20 building access

The National Press Club will be open on Inauguration Day, Friday, Jan. 20, 2017. Due to the heightened security surrounding inaugural events in the immediate area, the entire building will be on lock-down.

For your safety, and the safety of other members, guests and staff, if you wish to enter the Club on Jan. 20, you must register for building access by Jan. 18. To register, please contact Suzanne Struglinski, director of membership engagement at [email protected] or call (202) 662-7516.

Members and guests are welcome to use the inaugural filing room in the Murrow and Lisagor Rooms, the Reliable Source, Fourth Estate or other Club facilities, but we need to plan ahead for your arrival.

We appreciate your cooperation and understanding due to the unique nature of the day’s events and the anticipated crowds.

On Jan. 20, if plan to access the Club, please be prepared to have your membership card and/or photo ID to enter the building.

We will share other information as it becomes available.
