Nominate the Most Interesting Person in Tacoma

Not the already-famous. Not the usual suspects. We’re looking for the behind-the-scenes legends—the fixers, builders, helpers, and front-line difference-makers who make this city great and rarely get the spotlight.

Deadline: Christmas Eve 2025

How it works: Our committee will review every nomination and announce the winner on January 5th, 2026. The title holder receives the beautiful “253 Heart of Glass” made by Tacoma Glass Blowing.

Important: Please get permission from the person you’re nominating. If they win, we’ll feature who they are, what they do, and why they’re so interesting.
By submitting, you agree we may feature your nominee.

Tacoma’s full of legends—quiet ones, loud ones, and the ones doing the work when nobody’s watching. Nominate someone who makes this city more original, more human, and more Tacoma.
