Makers Needed

Trinity Communications ·

Calling All Makers & Creators!

Our Maker Market is right around the corner, and we’re building a lineup of Trinity Family artists, crafters, and small-batch creators to showcase their work. We want to highlight the incredible talent in our community.

If you’re a maker, or know someone who is, now’s the time to get involved! Vendor spots are open and a great way to connect with neighbors, gain visibility, and support local shopping this season.

Interested in being a vendor at the Maker Market? Reach out to Kelly C, we'd love to have you!

BNC Hires Arthur Fleming as Community Engagement Coordinator

Trinity Communications ·

The BNC is excited to welcome Arthur as the Bryant Neighborhood Center’s new Community Engagement Coordinator! Thanks to a renewed partnership with Hilltop Heritage and the support of Tacoma Sunrise Rotary, this new role allows Arthur to spend time on campus as a mentor and support for students—whether it’s being a listening ear at lunch or helping in AVID classrooms, he’ll use these connections to bring back valuable insight to the BNC and shape programs that directly meet the needs of our youth, keeping them engaged both academically and socially.

Arthur is new to Tacoma and eager to dive in. With experience as an AmeriCorps volunteer, a Certified Peer Counselor, and a Substance Use Disorder Professional Trainee, he brings compassion, authenticity, and dedication to his work. In his free time, he officiates youth sports across Pierce County and is passionate about holistic wellbeing, fitness, reading, and meditation. We’re thrilled to have him on the team and can’t wait to see the positive impact he’ll make with students and families in our community.
