Upward Together
When we’re all together, we’re part of something bigger. And better.
Upward Together is a collaborative, community-wide effort that champions all of greater Seattle’s milestones — from large-scale events to venue openings to important anniversaries.
We’re bringing together partners so that everyone can champion one another’s efforts and celebrate big wins. We want residents old and new to appreciate the personal and cultural ecosystem of Seattle even more and to embrace an environment of celebration, inclusivity and enthusiasm.

Why It Matters
Upward Together encourages collaboration and alignment between partners throughout the year and on projects of all sizes. We want to share these wins beyond Seattle so that other cities and communities associate us with progress, togetherness and a common purpose. It’s about enhancing and building upon what partners have already achieved in our communities, and about promoting these milestones through coordinated media coverage and support activities. We can make every beautiful moment part of something bigger for our region.
