Ten Of Us Announces Retail Partnerships
Last year,
We collaborated with eTc Tacoma along with 52 other iconic artists, creatives and landmarks to bring “Ten of Us” to life - a cinematic project that brings lovers of Tacoma together to showcase the city’s rich history, current state, and promising future!
After spending more than half of 2023 in production, this project culminated into a 186-page yearbook, short-film, and series of community events that showcase an important moment in the city’s growth and art scene.
We can honestly say that there are very few initiatives that paint a clear picture of everything that makes this city such a special place to call home. “Ten of Us” is easily one of those initiatives.
The yearbook parallels the storyline of the full-length film with a high-quality, introspective reading experience for all ages.
If you’re proud to call Tacoma home, this book was made just for you.
To launch a new wave of sharing the yearbook and film across the city, we partnered up with 4 amazing retail shops across Tacoma to make the book available for in-person shopping!
