About this event
Join us for an enlightening event, “Discover What Powers Tacoma,” where local historian Chris Staudinger will explore Tacoma's significant role in the development of hydropower. This presentation, “Powering Tacoma: The Cushman Substation and Our Hydropower Legacy,” will take you on a visual journey through the history of the Cushman Substation and its impact on national hydropower initiatives. Attendees can look forward to historic photos, exclusive interior footage, and engaging hands-on activities for families, including static electricity experiments, coloring sheets, and puzzles. This free event, suitable for all ages and held at Tacoma Public Library branches citywide, encourages curiosity with a Q&A session afterward. Presented by Historic Tacoma and funded by Tacoma Creates/City of Tacoma, don’t miss this chance to discover the electrifying story behind Tacoma's energy sources.
