"Numerica is proud to celebrate Black History Month at this weekend's Spokane Cultural Days celebration," said Kim Pearman-Gillman senior VP of corporate and community relations for Numerica Credit Union. "As an organization dedicated to enhancing lives, fulfilling dreams, and building communities, we are honored to celebrate diversity in such meaningful, engaging ways. We invite the community to enjoy all of the activities and cultural experiences and to enjoy free admission to the Numerica Sky Ride on Saturday."
"Downtown is excited to play host to the kick-off activities for what we hope will be year-round engagement with the many different cultures, histories, people, and experiences that weave into our community's fabric," says Downtown Spokane Partnership President & CEO Mark Richard. "By celebrating, amplifying, and supporting our existing cultural economy, we can move closer to the goal of achieving a downtown that is rich in diverse events and business ownership."
Downtown Spokane Partnership will sponsor the "Downtown Spokane Scavenger Hunt", providing an opportunity for participants to learn about Spokane's Cultural Economy and a chance to win up to $100. Activity rules and bingo sheets can be found by visiting downtownspokane.org.
