The press release is as follows: 

Calling Tacoma’s heritage community. We depend on your unique insights into how Tacoma Creates can help advance the work you are doing to enrich the lives of our citizens. Let’s talk!

Tacoma Creates is a voter-approved initiative to expand and financially support arts, culture, heritage, and science experiences throughout Tacoma, reduce barriers to access, and increase offerings for youth after school and in the summer. 

We’ll start off the evening with a brief overview of what Tacoma Creates is, what funding will support, eligibility, overall process and timeline, and next steps.

Then we’ll move to small group discussions with the goal of examining how Tacoma Creates can best be structured to support the unique needs of heritage organizations as well as learn about the current and future public programming plans of heritage organizations.

This event is free and open to the public. Supervised children are welcome; teens and young adults are encouraged to participate. Light refreshments will be served.

Presented by the City of Tacoma’s Office of Arts & Cultural Vitality. A special thanks to our host, Washington State History Museum.
