~ On May 25, 2023, the Tacoma Creates Advisory Board (TCAB) announced that it has approved funding contracts for the 2023-2024 funding cycle totaling approximately $5.6 million. This money will go to 65 non-profit organizations whose primary purpose is to advance or preserve arts, culture, heritage, and science in Tacoma, Washington.
The organizations supported by Tacoma Creates range from small volunteer-led arts programs to major downtown museums. These organizations are vital in the local economy and create opportunities for community engagement and connection. The funding will support a range of public programming for all ages, youth education programs, and a commitment to equitable and inclusive access for people throughout Tacoma.
"This year, we were able to fund 15 percent more organizations than last year, and the range of programming supported by Tacoma Creates continues to grow in exciting ways," said Tacoma Creates Advisory Board Chair Sheree Cooks. "We are seeing more collaboration between cultural organizations, and more opportunities for active engagement in arts, culture, heritage, and science for community members across Tacoma. We are seeing growth in equity work from both large and small organizations too, in terms of access, inclusion, and building diverse teams."
