The fall season has been treating us well at TPC. We’ve been keeping busy with both locations, hosting member events and growing these communities that we love so much. Here’s what’s on tap!

What we’re working on

TPC Tacoma member and architect Dane Torrens has worked on some pretty awesome projects recently:

A completely transformed arcade in Ocean Shores (it was the owner’s lifelong dream to open his own arcade and moved from San Diego to Ocean Shores for this space).

A great open concept design for a study hall at UC Davis.

Social media marketing for small businesses workshop

Social media expert and member Allison Bishins is holding a workshop in Seattle at Victrola Coffee about simple, effective, and authentic strategies for small businesses. 10% off for TPC members!

What we did

Bluebeard Roasters & Smith Tea tasting events

Bluebeard Roasters has been keeping our coffee consumption going strong in Tacoma. In October we had a cupping with Evan, the Wholesale Manager, and our members got to learn about how the team at Bluebeard sources their coffees and creates such a good roast!

Our teas in Tacoma come from Smith Tea, based out of Portland. Smith hosted a workshop for our members: Tea as an Ingredient - Matcha. This was a treat for our avid tea drinkers and novices alike. Here is the recipe for the Matcha Sunrise drink we made!

What we’re doing

Thursday Happy Hours in Pioneer Square & Downtown Tacoma

Seattle, First Thursday // Tacoma, Third Thursday

We have members’ happy hour needs covered one Thursday a month! These days coincide with the art walks in each neighborhood, which makes it a great excuse to explore the local creative communities as well.
