To commemorate the one year anniversary of The Market Commons, we invited the whole Pike Place Market community yesterday to dip into some tasty ice cream and win some cool door prizes!
In The Market Commons’s first year, neighbors, community members and Market vendors walked through our doors 10,916 times; we made 6,155 connections to housing, healthcare, groceries, and other needed social services and welcomed our neighbors 4,761 timesfor our community programming, including 903 hours of cooking classes, drawing courses, meditation seminars, community potlucks and much more!
“The Commons is so responsive to the community members, and there’s so much really good support and energy from the staff. And they make it fun!”– Marit, Community Volunteer and Resident
We’re just getting started and we wouldn’t be here without the support and participation of the entire Market community – we thank YOU!
