TACOMA NEIGHBORHOODS TOGETHER
Mission Statement
Tacoma Neighborhoods Together seeks to facilitate the distribution of philanthropic support which provide funding for the enhancement of our Neighborhoods through Public Art, Beautification and Revitalization Projects.
Tacoma Neighborhoods Together was formed to support the enhancement and
beautification of Tacoma’s core neighborhood centers, its neighborhood business
districts. It emphasizes that the people who live and work in the neighborhoods are
the ones who can best identify ways that can help to make Tacoma a more livable
community. From these collective voices the direction for Tacoma Neighborhoods
Together was first established in 2000.
Today our principal goal is still the same. To use art and cultural activities as means
to enhance community and revitalize our neighborhoods. Using art in public spaces,
or holding a special art related festival, can help create identity and pride. It can help
to bring people together to appreciate our differences and celebrate our common
experiences. A strong arts presence in the neighborhoods can contribute to its
economic infrastructure by creating unique places that attract visitors while
strengthening the neighborhoods as good places to live and work.
As a non-profit, 501c3 organization, donations to Tacoma Neighborhoods Together are tax deductible and are used to support art and beautification efforts in the City of Tacoma, WA.
