Our last stop of the night tonight (3/20) on Tacoma ART BUS will be Water from Wine, a non-profit Washington winery. There are 6 Acres of Cabernet Sauvignon on their Founder’s vineyard dedicated to funding clean water efforts globally. That means that 100% of the proceeds of all wine produced from this vineyard goes back to fight the global water crisis, bringing access to potable water to communities. They partner with over 20 different clean water organizations with differing regional expertise from South and Central America, various parts of Africa, India to East Asia and right here in the US. They have contributed over $1.3 million toward clean water infrastructure, access and sanitation since 2017.

Water from Wine hosts music every Friday and Saturday night 7-10 and you are encouraged to reserve your ticket in advance on their website.

This ART BUS tour is sponsored by Hunt's Services.

The Celebrity Tour Guide will be Saint Bryan from KING 5 Evening Magazine.

Everyone will receive a HUGE swag bag!

We are thrilled to announce that the Tacoma ART BUS Tour this Thursday evening will be visiting a place we have never been before! Cr8ttyffs Gifts on 6th Ave!

Tiffany Caty opened Cr8tyffs in June of 2020. She wanted to provide a place for all her creative graphic tees and tumblers. As well as a retail space, Tiffany also offers the space for rent for others to have a birthday party, retirement party, work retreat and sometimes even church functions.

Tiffany offers her space for other local businesses who want to buy a shelf to display their work. During the tour she will have a few local small businesses sharing their items with us! Everyone will also get a calendar of upcoming events held at Cr8Tyffs!

This tour is sponsored by Hunt's Services. The Celebrity Tour Guide will be Saint Bryan from King5's Evening Magazine.

Everyone will receive a HUGE swag bag!

One of the places Tacoma ART BUS will be visiting on Thursday is Stocklist Goods in downtown Tacoma on Pacific Avenue. Stocklist Goods is a gift shop like no other. Showcasing products made locally and from afar with price points for everybody, Stocklist was founded in 2016 by Massachusetts' own Liz Van D**e! Her journey across the country sparked her love and loyalty for the Pacific Northwest along with the drive to create community. Liz and her team strive to connect with not just makers, but with everyone they meet along the way. With their shop dog, Mona, on their side, Stocklist is sure to help you find both the things that you want and the things that you need!

Do you have a cool space with something creative on display and/or for sale in the Tacoma area? Email me at [email protected] because I am making a list of potential places to take the ART BUS in 2025. I am talking to sponsors who will hopefully allow us to create a pay-what-you-can sliding scale type thing so we can visit places who normally can't afford to pay their portion of the bus rental fee.

On Thursday's ART BUS Tour we will be visiting shops in Gig Harbor for the very first time! Check out the art of FASHION!

On this tour we get to meet Aidenn Mullen, the new owner of One 11 Mens Clothing, a shop thoughtfully curated for the Pacific Northwest guy in your life. Aidenn's journey started as a menswear designer for successful East Coast brands, but when she discovered One 11, she fell in love and decided to make the leap into small business ownership. Now based in Gig Harbor, she’s bringing her passion for menswear and a keen eye for style to the local community. Her shop is stocked with an exciting mix of inventory, featuring brands like YoColorado!, Bridge and Burn (Portland, OR), Pendleton (OR), and The Landmark Project, which supports National Parks. From cozy loungewear and warm outerwear to rain gear, shackets, and accessories like wallets and climbing rope belts, One 11 has something for every PNW guy. Keep an eye out for new arrivals like sunwashed knit button downs, quarter zips, graphics tees and hoodies and more. Aidenn is thrilled to share her love of menswear with Gig Harbor and beyond!
