 Our Hope & a Musical Means

A Music Festival for Youth w/ No Shelter

Whatever your love for music, you will love what we're doing with it in Tacoma: We as an independent music community are creating a cycle of awareness to address critical need of youth with no shelter, in order to gain support for them across communities.

We believe very deeply that, when the realities of their lives are known, people in South Sound communities will supply what needs there are for the youth themselves.


Working with local radio, online and other media platforms, we are working with a growing community of musical artists and bands, together with the supporters of the 2019 Music & Heart in Wright Park music festival, to gain critical support for the ground-level organizations serving youth in increasingly important ways. We aim to gain insight and understanding of what youth fact and how we can address these issues effectively.


Shelter for Our City's Youth

Whether your love for music is just as a listening junkie, or you sing favorites in the shower, or even if you're a full-on rockstar in your own right - you will love what we doing with music in the South Puget Sound.

Partnering with local media platforms like Radio Tacoma, we are working with local South Sound Musicians and businesses to gain support for the organizations helping youth with no shelter in Tacoma and the South Puget Sound like Oasis Youth Center, Vadis, ACT With Youth, Reach Center, The Coffee Oasis and others to create a cycle of awareness that started in 2019 and will be a continuing element in our local music and business culture for the foreseeable future.

POST PRODUCTION (in) PROGRESS
If you like what we are doing, using music to address the pressing social needs of our city in a practical and uplifting way, this is one music project worth being participating in.

Be part of a new approach to supporting vulnerable youth in our city: Support us financially to help with the production expenses needed to create the programming for promotion.

A Memorial in Hope, Compassion & Peace

The Community Chrysalis was created in 2015 as part of the Stars 4 Peace, and has been in development in community since.
​We are Artists 4 Life in the Sound

Be part of a Memorial in Hope as we focus on what we want to let go of as people, and what we desire to bring into our lives moving forward as a community. Let us also acknowledge those affected by all that has happened this year, and create something to embolden the people to establish a greater life in hope, compassion and joy moving ahead.

Include your own desires, thoughts and hopes as we set a far-reaching community intention: Consider what you desire for life in the coming years, write it down, and place it in the Chrysalis. Sterilized pens and paper will be provided by the memorial organizers but you can bring your own already written.

Also, bring a token of hope to include on the memorial in the form of candles, flowers, artwork, written word or whatever form you prefer to share your own remembrance and hope this day. The installation is family-friendly.

​All are welcome - Come as You Are
