Glen De Guzman Has Been A Walker Member Since 2012

Glen de Guzman

Why did you become a member?

It was luck! I won a free six-month membership at an event raffle in 2012. During those six months, I attended a FlatPak talk, a tour of the General Mills Art Collection, and several A Think & A Drinks. I was hooked, and I’ve renewed every year since.

What do you love about the Walker?

The Walker is the perfect place to go at the end of the day if you work downtown. I especially like A Think & A Drink because it offers a tour of a new exhibition followed by drinks and hors d’oeuvres. It’s a good place to unwind.

What’s your favorite member event?

I love movies and see as many as possible. My favorite event is the Film Independent Spirit Awards in January. Before each movie, I treat myself to a dinner at the Garden Café. Then I bring my glass of red wine with me inside the theater.

What do you do when you’re not at the Walker?

I’m very active in Toastmasters and have earned the level of Distinguished Toastmaster. In the past three years, I’ve competed in speech contests. My other hobbies are geocaching (GPS-enabled treasure hunting), playing backgammon, reading, and of course, watching movies.
