For 15 years, Spaceworks has harnessed creativity as a catalyst for economic vitality, equitable growth, and connection across Tacoma. But this year, our work faces a critical challenge: the loss of federal funding threatens our ability to support the artists and small businesses that make our city thrive. That’s why your partnership is more important than ever.
As we celebrate our 15-year anniversary at CACHET, our annual fundraiser on June 7th, we invite you to stand with Tacoma’s creative community – and ensure Spaceworks can continue fueling inclusive economic growth.
By attending, sponsoring, or donating, you’ll directly invest in:
✅ Job creation through creative entrepreneurship,
✅ Vibrant public spaces that attract residents and visitors,
✅ Equitable access to arts and culture for all Tacomans,
✅ Small business resilience amid funding gaps.
Why It Matters Now:
Federal cuts will directly impact our ability to provide grants, training, and vacant space activations for local artists and entrepreneurs. Since 2010, Spaceworks has supported 900+ creatives, activated 50+ storefronts, 100’s of murals, and become a national model for creative placemaking – but without community support, this progress is at risk.
Together, we can ensure Tacoma’s creative ecosystem not only survives—but thrives. Will you help us bridge the gap?
