T.U.P.A.C.'S 2024 SEASON

 Tacoma Housing  Authority  is working with Tacoma Urban Performing Arts Center (TUPAC) to lease the performing arts space, and we will prioritize BIPOC businesses to rent the other spaces. These spaces will likely be places where the community can watch performances like they have never seen before, shop, eat, and interact with business owners and neighbors contributing to the fabric of the community.  

We hope to complete the project in late 2024.  Housing Hilltop - Tacoma Housing Authority 

The project is supported by  $3 million in federal funds secured by Congressman Derek Kilmer and Senator Maria Cantwell. The federal funds will help build the commercial space on the property, with approximately $1 million available to help BIPOC businesses complete the necessary tenant improvements that turn a “shell” into a real useable space. Tacoma Urban Performing Arts Center must raise an additional $6 million  to complete interiors prior to moving into this new facility. The first installment of $2 million is due before  31 January 2024.
