You Belong Here

Tacoma Arts Live is a 501(c)(3) non-profit arts organization.

As the largest performing arts organization between Seattle and Portland, Tacoma Arts Live is a PNW leader in revitalizing the arts during a time of significant transformation. Fueled by curiosity, creativity, and collaboration, we leverage our unique home as a venue for innovation, commissioning artists from around the globe to create new, dynamic immersive exhibits.

“Tacoma Arts Live…are really making a difference for artists and small business owners here by giving people a voice, a space, and the support they need to succeed and grow… The work [they] do is helping to build a positive and inclusive community identity, promote local economic development, and give a voice to local artists.”
