We invite you to come to the next Mayor’s Monday Mixer October 17 to network and talk about crafting the future of our city.
Whether you are an artist, a manufacturer, an inventor, a tinkerer, or a designer you are a maker and the Mixer is an informal way to meet other makers, content experts, government representatives and interested parties to share information and build community. |

| “Tacoma is built on a rich history of innovation and manufacturing,” said Mayor Marilyn Strickland. “Now we are poised to advance our position as a Maker City again by strengthening opportunities for our local talent to thrive. Much like Brooklyn, where the Etsy Maker City Summit was held earlier this year, we have a thriving artisan community that takes great pride in their work.” |
