Become a Sponsor
As we gear up for the much-anticipated 2024 Caribbean Queens Festival, I am reaching out to you with a heartfelt invitation to join us as a valued sponsor. This inaugural celebration of all things Caribbean promises to be an event unlike any other, and we are excited to bring together communities from across the region and beyond to revel in the vibrancy and diversity of our Caribbean heritage.
The Caribbean Queens Festival will engage community members in celebrating the music, food, artistry and culture of the Caribbean diaspora. This one-day public event, happening on April 6 at Edison Square in Tacoma, will feature small business owners of Caribbean descent, providing visibility and economic opportunity for underrepresented entrepreneurs.
With partial support from the City of Tacoma Arts Commission, we will be able to cover the bare minimum expenses for the venue and performers’ fees. With your added financial and/or in-kind support, we can sponsor local BIPOC vendors’ fees, as well as create a kids’ zone for artistic expression. These critical added elements will enable us to enhance the overall experience for attendees and participants alike. Your sponsorship dollars and deeds go directly toward securing top-notch entertainment, providing logistical support, and ensuring that the festival remains accessible to all members of our community.
In recognition of your support, we offer a range of sponsorship opportunities designed to showcase your organization’s commitment to diversity, culture, and community engagement.
