Spaceworks Tacoma emerged in 2010 as a creative response to vacant storefronts in downtown Tacoma. This program of the Tacoma-Pierce County Chamber includes a business incubator and public art projects. We are the primary Microenterprise Development Organization for Tacoma’s creative economy. Each year, we directly serve more than 130 microenterprises through training cohorts, alumni events, technical assistance, marketing support, expert consultations, microloans, affordable studios and business residencies, and public art display opportunities. Spaceworks offers two business training programs; 4-week Foundations for those in the idea phase that need a hand on where to begin, and a 12-week Business Plan Cohort for those with a tested product or service in need of a business plan. In collaboration with community partners, we can offer complete wrap-around services for whatever obstacle you are facing. Services are provided to clients who live within Tacoma, WA and are microenterprises.
